itll keep coming. just go out and ride as much as possible. takes everyone some time to get used to the feelin of wakeboarding/skating.

Yoou are probably turning the board before you wait to get pulled back in. Try to go heelside, then wait for the boat to pull you back towards the wake and just press toeside a little. that should help. And make sure you keep your rope at your hip. ROCK ON. Cool

I think i know whats happening, happened to me and still happens to my buddies. What you are probably doing is leaning over to go in teh direction you want. You must always remember to lean BACK away from the other end of the rope at all times. while doing that, look towards the direction you want to go with your head, and it will gently put that edge in and you will go in that direction.
