How many of you guys Powerturn? Because that is part of the problem in itself.

Most of us with heavy boats know how to turn around without sending huge rollers right????

If I power turned where I ride and who I ride with they would throw me overboard.....lol

My method for picking up a falenrider is after they fall....
cut throttle....If your running nose heavy watch the bow
then just as the boat is almost even in the water the wake causes a "push"
I turn the wheel to the right and it kicks around( if REAL heavy in the nose start the turn a little earlier)
then cruise back to the rider
No wake to plow through or bury your rider.......
You can also turn to the left if need.

Is this the same method most of you folks use?
Sounds about right for me. Key is to let the wake pass you then turn.
