This clip is a few months old and maybe too zoomed out to see enough detail, but this type of fall at the end of the wave drives me crazy. Some variation of that fall happens about 50% of the time I go for a cutback/carve. Used to be 100% of the time, so there has definitely been some progress. What's the number one thing to focus on to prevent digging the rail and/or flopping backwards on the cutback? I can see a few things I did wrong in this attempt but what was the biggest issue?

Hey guys Ive got a question about foot placement right from the pop up.

Ive progressed my way down to a 6 foot groveler which works well for my mushy waves here in south florida. Im noticing when I do the walk up off my knee my back foot always lands right in front of my tail pad. Here in florida our waves are quick and fairly weak, and im trying to work on turns. That second that it takes me to move my back foot back onto my pad really kills all my speed and momentum and by the time my foots in the right place to turn the wave is usually over. Does anyone have any tips on how to practice getting up with my back foot landing right on the tail?

In terms of everything else my pop up is real solid, my eyes are always looking where I want to go not at the board, and my feet land right over my stringer so Im not concerned with working on getting my feet centered on the board. I always also pop up with my weight forward in my neutral stance just like you guys teach here. I just really need help getting my foot on my tail immediately because theres not a lot of power coming from my waves and id still like to work on bottom turns, top turns, and cutbacks without constantly bogging my rails.
