I just learned to wake board last summer. Self taught and used the Sean Murrey DVDs.

I am able to get up pretty easy, i can cut in my wake back and forth. I can go heel side out of my wake really well and cut back to the middle. I was able to toe side across my wake and cut back in a few times on my last couple runs last least season.

What im wondering for starters is, when you are in the middle of the wake your board is straight and your leaning back.

When you go toe side or heel side are you actually twisting or moving your back foot so the nose of the board points the direction you want to go? I have been trying to just lean on my heels or my toes to cut.

When i watch videos though it always looks like they are kicking there back foot in or out respectively to the direction they want to go.

I know i have a lot of learning to do and im looking forward to getting out with some other boarders this summer to learn more.
