I keep trying but usually end up landing with no water speed and with the kite pulling me backwards. I feel like I am pulling the kite to the other side hard enough, and any more usually end up feeling like a failed "send the kite" type of jump. Are you supposed to have some water speed as you enter the transition? where is the kite when you leave the water?

I have a feeling my efforts so far look somewhat kook-ish
