Most wakeskaters leave it wrapped so it cant be that so much. I rekon might be trying to stamp the ollie too hard.

Turning before popping perhaps? Or not necessarily before, but just too soon, so you aren't getting a full pop and hang time...erm... dude.

big ollie to 90 degrees, then yank the handle round and hang over your toes so not to get pulled out. when you suss it out you'll never fall on them again.
