The folded corner of the tail should be facing the tail. The two flaps of foam should rest on the board together. The toe of your front foot should hang off the edge a bit. [substeps] Your feet should be parallel with each other, creating a sort of diagonal line across the board. Lift your front foot by placing the heel of your back foot on the board, and place the front foot right behind the tail of the board. [substeps] Your back foot should be situated slightly higher than your front foot, with the heel of your back foot directly above the tail. You might feel the tail slightly lifting from under you but that's alright. You can place your entire foot in motion just like you would to flip a tennis ball.
