lean forward?

You could go technical with a trim system or maybe some washers between the ride plate and the hull in the back holes, or you could go old school and just lean forward with your chest closer into the bars...

How much do you weigh?

Do you mean when you are running at a good speed the nose won't stay down? If thats the case get a longer plate or get out of your holds.

If you mean attempting tricks with your feet in the holds, its better if the nose is up. If you're not used to it, you will be. You can also add a bit more speed to bring hte nose down, just don't overdo it or you'll eat some water in the face pretty good when you submerge the machine.

practice...superjets like to porpoise until you really learn how to ride them....


lean forward...and when you think your leaning forward, lean forward some more.....and then, cut your pole and lean forward some more

You should shorten up your steering with a shortened turn plate http://www.xmetalworks.com/store/cart.php?m=product_detail&p=6

what pole are you running? a shorter pole will help to get your body closer to the nose, center of gravity, which in turn will help keep the nose down.

It will also help when starting to learn some tricks...

my AC pole is -6", XMW short turn plate, XMW straight bars, lowered bracket and with my OEM "D" cut ride plate it's perfect for me.

edit: Guess Chad and I were thinking alike...
