First Wake Jump

While outside the wake, make the line tight (load the line) and start turning towards the wake. Keep an edge the whole way, even when youīre going through the wake itself. A lot of people flatten the board right before they hit the wake. Donīt do this. Keep an edge all the way through the wake. When you are in the air then you can flatten out the board. Look down and spot your landing. When you land donīt expect to use the rope to keep you up. Try and land balanced because the rope will be slack and pulling on it will only make you fall backwards. All the rope does is keep you going once you have landed and regained balance. To go higher, dig in a sharper edge which will accelerate you towards the wake and straighten your legs when you hit the wake to be shot up.

this is great advice and seems to be the only advice anyone gives, but trust me on this.. when you edge out make sure you make it out far enough to build speed progressively till once you are going to colide with the wake you are at full edge and at top speed...if you time it right the combination with the edging, rope tension and speed will be enough to clear it. Im a beginner and the way i clear it right now is to keep in mind to straighten up my legs as i hit the wake and push up. Most of the time i get the right distance but i fall backwards, i need to stay more in control at the final 2 ft b4 the wake
