Practice... 
If you've never skateboarded or snowboarded a lot of practice. Relax and use your rear foot and hips to turn which way you want to go. |

Hey rosco57,
Really www.azskateparks.com, has it, it's just time on the board...it'll come to you. You use your edges to steer...Just get up first, don't even try going outside the wake, just concentrate on staying up...now experiment by putting a bit of weight on your toe side and see what happens and then try heelside...relax, you're in a fluid envirnoment....
Once you get comfortable with that, get a little more aggresive with your edge working up to being able to carve really hard....
