I would suggest going to a club and get some coaching because we would have to see what your doing to know how you can get more pop.

Here is my shot at it though.

The key is a nice progressive edge, and hold it all the way up the wake. At the top of the wake, pop up, that is lock your knees, fight against the force of the wake pushing you up. Remember to stand tall and proud, push your chest out and keep your hands low at your hips. this should give you lots of pop. try and keep your legs strieght to start with (as lifting them up can loose pop).

Now i will wait for all the corrections to my advice.... go to a descent wakeboard club, and get some coaching. Or by an instructional DVD (destruction or detention).

Hope this helps

John
