hey guys i need some help here on a real beginner question...you know the steps u take to do hs wake jumps? First you edge out...then you flatten your board...then carve and edge on ur heels towards the wake...and flatten your board when ure abt one foot frm the wake then u pop off right?

ok its been MONTHS now and i tink i really suck...i can jump clear across 2 wakes on a 60ft line...but im not getting any air at all...the jumps are so slow i feel like i barely jumped 1 foot most of the time. i tink its gotta do with my whole setup frm the time i try to carve in on my heels towards the wake. something feels wrong...and weird.

after edging out on my toes, while flattening the board, i feel like im getting pulled really fast and close to the wake. i dun noe how to carve and get into the "sitting chair" position on my heels to edge in towards the wake and finally get that pop. i cant figure out how to do the 'transition' from the time i edge out to when i hit the wake.

someone help pls i feel so damn frustrated...ive been trying my damn hs jumps for ages now. im like permanently stuck at this stage 'coz i cant advance to learn other tricks w/o mastering this basic wake to wake jump.
