You need the following:

Speed
Line load
Tall, stiff body position

Notice: Wake is missing. You can perform air tricks with the above without the wake.

Getting the body into a stiff, tall position from the speed building position is a matter of timing. You will develop the feel for it with practice. Try to avoid "jumping" off the wake, you will just bury the board on the face of the wake.

the pop position is you extending your legs as you go up the wake and the maximum pop position is your height.

stay on edge and push as you go up the wake (heelside) Toeside resist the wake with your legs as you stay on edge up the wake.
