hey hey honda,,
yes try riding edge all the way up the wake ,, alot of people flaten out early,, but by flatening out and pushing off the wake you loose pop ,, and yes the juvi is an exellent board ,, and yes they do make adjustable bindings that fit slightly looser than regular bindings,,and require no soaping to get into,,you can try them if you want but i hate them ,, your bindings will eventually stretch enough not to cut into your feet ,, but they will always numb your feet after a period of wearing them ,, but the adjustables being not as tight
will allow some feet movement and that is what i dont like ,, your feet should be tight to the board ,, now rope lenght is going to depend on your wake ,, alot of pro's use 75 feet or so ,, but they also got 2000 pounds of wieght in the boat ,, the further your rope the better ,, that lets you go out wider and more time to approach the wake,, what you do is set up your boat with your desired amount of wieght,,get up to 20-22 mph,,and let your rope out to the point of the largest wake with the least amount of white wash,,white wash being that foamy looking stuff at the top of your wake ,, there may even be a spot in your wake with no white wash at all ,, if so thats great ,, but find the largest part of your wake with the least amount of white wash and let your rope out to there ,,your wake may be kinda wide at this point ,, let me know if you have trouble making wake to wake jumps,,and we will see what we can do to fix that ( if you have any trouble ) good luck and welcome to wake-chat ,,,
