hey guys, ive been wakeboarding for a couple of month now, and i do it often and im really trying hard to get better and better, altough i dont know anyone that rides better than me (ive taugght what i know to my friends) i can do 3's but i wanna get the basics porperly, i can clear the wake, but when i jump, the tip points up while the back of the board points down. Why can this be happening? thanks. <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65919/206003.jpg" alt="">

way too much weight on your back foot, and looks like your suckin' in your legs at the wake. <BR> <BR>stand tall...stick your chest out and bring handle in to hip when you come off the wake.

keep both hands on the handle

Post some pictures of you doing 3s

Your doing the slalom ski thing. do what j-rod said and keep your chest up dont absorb the wake, resist it. And keep the handle low and at your hip
