Bigger Air Tips!!???

[money_mike]

im fairly new to wakeboarding and i am having sme trouble clearing the entire wake with consistency.

it just seems like i get yanked down as soon as i leave the water. My boat doesnt have a pylong or a tower but the attachment is right above the outboard motor so its not like it on the water level.

ANY TIPS FOR GETTING BIGGER AIR???

my cousin was telling me to straighten out a bit instantly before hitting the wake, but that just doesnt seem like the right thing to do because your losing your cutting power.

SO ANY TIPE DOWN TO THE LITTLEST DETAIL WOULD BE GREAT!!! Thanks

Getting air enough to cross both wakes and then some has a lot to do with your edging all the way through the wake... right as you approach the crest of the wake, most people ease up the pull and flatten out- not good. By easing up, you take away most of that tension the rope has built up and significantly lessens that force that pops you into the air. Keep in mind, your maximum speed should be at the TOP of the wake- not as you first make the cut or anytime during the cut. Best approach is to make a gradual turn into your carve, dig that edge in as you build up speed toward the wake, spring with your legs when you reach the wake and hold on until you're in the air.
