It's ok to come into the wake with your knees slightly bent, but like everyone else said, it is the standing up tall at the wake that gives you the pop. Also, making sure you ride all the way to the top of the wake before standing tall is KEY. I don't want to offend anyone here and maybe this is just my personal opinion, but I would keep your legs locked all the way into the wake and through it. Yes knees bent absorbs the wake, but the slightly crouched position while carving into the wake and THEN standing tall at the peak is what gives you the most pop.
