Very Happy Ok, I come off the wake waiting for the pop to throw my head down and look over my back shoulder, once I'm off the wake I release the handle and begin to unwind. I think I have my other hand out or away from my hips or something because I end up coming out of the back roll and unwinding so that the rope and handle get caught up on the board and even sometimes under the board, and then I have to let go so I don't eat pooh! Surprised I feel like I'm right there, I have good height, and am not rushing the handle release like I did when I first started trying them. Help me out, got any tips Question

It might help you to try a wrapped roll to blind becuase it sounds like you are letting go of the wrap handle too early. A wrapped roll to blind would teach you to time your release. I'm not saying to try until land one, but just trying it WILL help you get a better feel for the whole KGB. Give that a try.
