So I have finally got good enough at wake-boarding to actually be able to injure myself (that is a sign you're progressing correct?). Getting out of the water and basic board control have become easy. I have slowly mastered the tiny one wake jumps landing in the middle of the wakes no problem.
Going wake to wake on the other hand is where things start to get painful. For whatever reason when I get a decent pop off the wake I panic in air and look down. Usually resulting in me dipping the front edge and face planting. Needless to say I feel like I have been in multiple car wrecks.
Three things I am going to try when I heal up and get some courage. Standing tall drill, try to control handle to lead hip, do my best to keep eyes on the boat while in air and more smaller jumps. Anyone care to offer any other tips I would appreciate it. Seems like I am learning the painful way but maybe its the only way I know how haha
I have some decent video I may upload to youtube sometime.
