Thank you! So if its timing do you think fat waves get you into a habit of slow timing? Or do you think it’s more about being aware of the lift and knowing when to do your walk up

Hey guys,
I’m new to the community and OMBE, loving it so far! I’ve been working on my walk up and relaxing in the water and the bus stop analogy has done wonders, I’m no longer second guessing myself with positioning.
I just had a question as me and my friends always have arguments about this.
So if you are surfing fat waves all the time can this effect your pop up for when you go into steeper waves?
Or is the problem not actually in the wave but in the pop up itself. I understand a steeper wave is going to give you more lift/push but if you position yourself correctly on a fat wave does it really matter?
Thanks,
Laura
