If you go into a raley position and the rope snaps out of your hand it pulls you into a front ..just make sure you dont let go at the top of the trick and it shouldnt happen

you're doing a huge flip because you're not looking straight ahead in front of you. keep your eyes up and look past the tower and in front of the boat. when you lay it out you'll feel the tension and just pull down and toward your hips and you'll land with your feet under you. i learned how to do it on a wakeskate and it helped. good luck.

you may also be trying to throw the trick too much, make sure you just relax and let it float out, you don't have to "throw" this trick
