when im pumping its hard to stay on balance while pumping at high speeds. and when l get pumping sometimes fast l try to pump again and my foot gets pulled back. How do l make it go faster while already goin fast

Not sure why ur foot would get pulled back, (or which foot you're talking about), but it sounds like u either need to work on ur balance or stay in the critical section of the wave where the speed is.

Keep ur feet planted near the middle of the board, (not too far back), & bend ur knees as u move up & down the face - it will feel like you're doing squats at the gym. this power from ur legs will translate into the board.

To work on ur balance get a balance board like an Indo board: http://beachtrading.com/balanceboard.html

Good luck!

If you already have enough speed why are you having to pump anyway? The only reason to pump is to get water to ''push'' past your fins to pick up some speed to get to the next section when a wave is dying out.

Sounds like you are not 'pumping', but just bouncing your board around because you think it is a cool move. Ditch the move, and stick to real surfing. Save the pumping for when the wave slows down and or gets thick & mushy and you want to get further down the face of the new section.
