Need some help with my toe side digging in

freerider 08-27-2006, 8:38 AM

I just bought a 2006 HL Murray and LF team bindings. I keep digging in toe side to far and it slows me down. I've moved my bindings around but nothing is helping. Anyone know what might be the problem? I love my bindings but holy crap they are heavy.

The board is also very heavy. But it is not the weight of the board, that is the problem. I guess that you not edge progressively. Remember to wait in the flats until the boat starts pulling you in, then edge slowly. If you do it to aggresively, then your board wants to dive.

yea I'm going at it to hard I guess. I'm being pulled at about 20mph.

Bump up to 21-22 mph

Speed up and edge progessivley, especially on the murray. That board doesnt handle a very fast edge change. Good advice on waiting in the flats untill the boat pulls you in. Think of your cut on a 1 to 10 scale 1 at the initiation of your edge and a 10 at the wake.
