Yes always wear a helmet. But the reason you are smacking your face is likely because you are not getting enough amplitude to make it all the way around.

Put on a helmet, work on your set up wake, and hit it harder/faster to get more pop.

LOL!! Has anyone see my ski? No joke...this has happened to me. Good thing I was in the lake instead of the ocean.

Happened to my buddy on Lake St. Clair... Let someone he didn't know ride his ski with the lanyard wrapped around the handlebars. Somehow it got stuck wide open and he fell off... Took 4 hours to find the ski'.

Yup we all have been there. We call that a Water Punch!!
Believe it or not once you get pass half way it stops hurting. Frosty is right perfect the set up wake and get more pop. Remember your trying it wip the back end around over your head. Listen for the clink of the turn plate hitting the steering stop.

Well finish the story. what did it hit: a house, person, shark, or a tree?
On a good note, you still have your bow eye.

haha, my bad my bad.

It blasted off across the bay (which you can barely see land on the other side) and smashed into a sea wall head on then sank in a couple feet of water.

Just barely saw it poking out. Lucky for the bright green on the graphics!

Turn The F#&^*@ Bars ;)

Smacking your face on the water is from lack of rotation.
(if you roll left) Turn into the bottom of the wake (commited right)
Turn left off .... Pinned. The sooner you can start the acceleration the higher, and farther you'll go.
All the face smackin, ear drum poppin, gina clinchin stops there.

Bitches ....... j/k ...... no I'm not ....... yes I am ...... I don't know ...... maybe
