You have to take a steady approach, some of them you let off your edge right before you hit the wake. Also you might want to let go with your back hand so you dont keep rolling to revert.

I wouldn't let you ride any of my boards.

| I broke my 06 trans plat when learning these - something about landing flat and hard. Usually when I spin to revert it's because I'm going to fast and not progressive enough on the edge. If you slow down and get more pop it will be slower and loftier and if you can pull your head up on the landing and spot the boat you should be able to pull away. Be careful about fast and low pop, I tore my mcl from spinning fast and low and casing into the wake. |

| you need to cut in hard, steady, yet hard. Stand tall at the wake and put your chin on your leading shoulder. Throw your feet away and you will def get around. ALso let go on your back hand because it will roll u 2 revert . I got it on my 3rd try like this, just keep at it and it will come |
