dylbag, put your fett about 3-4 inches under where you would regularly do a shuv it. THats what i do and it works good.

dylbag, remeber , its also about 80 % sweep, and 20% percent pop. but for the most part the pop will come natural. and stay over the board from beginning to end.

(IMO)

hope that helps

dylbag, theres a good tutorial by danny hampson on the alliance wake website. its all about the snap. you want the board to spin up to your feet and then land. not spin and come down on the board as its finishing rotating. and you want to through it behind your butt and forward. handle low and dont jump your entire body up, i like to think of it as your spinning the board and you knees lift up to your torso and this keeps you body positioning better.
