Hey I recently switched from my old O'brien 141" board to a new CWB absolute Platinum and I have no problem going w2w, doing wrapped 3's, raleys and all my old tricks nopt to mention getting much better height but I seem to be flying really a*s heavy, any thoughts on how to correct this?

Thanks
Mike

I had the exact same problem when I first got the board... And honestly dude, I dont know what I do different anymore, but I just sort of corrected the problem... The board is phat though, I enjoy the pop I get out of it, I just want to land more in the flats on some tricks!

In my opinion, it will work itself out as you get used to it bro... My technique was perfect, just took some time getting used to it! Wink

try putting more weight on your front foot as you approach the wake.

This has nothing to do with the board. Do what Scott just said, you are riding trailing foot heavy, simple as that.
