well u make a great photo but you're not supposed to give away the truth

hand up close to the mast on the boom before launching, getting the nose to hit the water first, and sliding back leg around more horizontally rather than jumping the board vertically is the key as u really don't need much height (and then u gotta re-learn them for different chop, sail size and wind strength ) but keep going, coz u are so close to getting past the ankle busting stage and it gets much better from there on. Practice standing switch stance either on the water while sailing or hanging off the sail on the beach helps alot too so u can handle the endings.

not sure if u ever read this but it helped me heaps
