what's your setup? It looks like you are running SUPER fast. How much/where is your weight? How fast are you running? That wave looks good.

Just keep working at it. At first, it will feel like your movements are delayed but the more you get the feel, the more that delay will go away.

I am not a pro but have taught a lot of people how to surf... If you watch your video you can see every time you "hit the brakes" you end up falling back outside the wakes sweet spot. My advise is the second you hit the brakes get back on the gas (front foot) the brakes work much better then the accelerator (front foot). Once you figure this out you are good to go

Try not to keep so much weight on the back foot.. Having a bunch of weight on the back foot is like driving with the e-brake on. One thing I will say to do is turn your chest towards the boat when you feel you are falling out of the wave. that will put more weight over your front foot and take some of the pressure off your back.

It all looks good.

also to me your front foot needs to be more toe side...

That wave looks really nice.
And since you're taking advise.( even though you didn't really ask ) Try keeping the board facing more towards the center of the boat. This will keep you in the push zone. It looked like you were having trouble with the speed. Too fast and then way too much brakes. This is tricky and can take a little time to get it right because the weight distribution from gas to brakes can be very subtle. One thing that can make it easier is if you move you front foot and find the sweet spot when just standing in a natural stance keeps you in the wave.

Yea my bad I started the help.. I figure if he is like I was he is cool with any advice to help get to the always wanted wireless riding

that being said I agree on the board facing more forward.. thinking moving the front foot more toe side will help that.

You are very close to wireless and the feeling is awesome once you get there!
