that's probably a little too much rope for that speed. Most that ride 80+ are also riding 23 mph +

Are you sure you are going 19mph? I dont see how you could ride out at 80 going 19, probably going faster then 19 and your speedo is off a couple mph..

Too much rope for that speed. Either speed up or take in some line.

Is the speedo calibrated with GPS? If not find the speed that "feels" the best then set the rope length. There should be a point at which you can feel the board come alive.
