how old are you? my back leg is more straight. w/ my front slightly bent. try not to eat before you go in the water(at least 30 min mom says).........Or youll get a cramp...... Laughing

Make sure you stretch. Not only before you ride, but on a regular basis.
Make sure you hydrate. Dehydration can cause cramping.
Make sure your bindings are set up properly. Sometimes even a minor tweak of adjustment can make a big difference in your ride.
