Dont really understand what you are doing but try to spot your landing. You can practice this on a tramp really good and you dont need a rope. Just once you spot the water keep your eyes on it.

It sounds to me like you're letting your arm out when you throw the trick. Try keeping your arm close to your body during the flip and as soon as you see the water you can let it out to slow your rotation. I hope this helps.

drop your back hand when u start the progression of the wake. and let go when u square ur edge and get to the top of the wake.
