Why do I have to cut as hard as I can just to barely make it? I can't get to the flats! Are you supposed to stand tall at the wake like on a wakeboard?

Jama, yeah stand tall at the wake. It might be because your wake is too wide and not tall enough.......

Yeah I understand that concept I wakeboarded for three years before I gave it up. But when I watch videos of wakeskaters none of them seem to have to cut as hard as me.

Jama, the shape of your wake can play a big part...i know behind any centurion i have to cut super hard to make it because the wake is really steep w/o much transition, and the wake is very wide

Jama, Speed is also a factor. I noticed when i went faster on the wakeboard i cleared the wake easier. maybe if you posted a video it would help.
