You need to fix your setup a little bit. If I was in the boat with you I'd tell you this; you need to get your hips square with the board; both knees pointing to the edge of the board and let your core turn your shoulders to the back of the boat. (Keep your rear arm OVER your right boob on regular stance.) Start at the wake and carve out into the flats and get into your seated position as you coast. Stay in that nice seated position and let the boat start pulling you back into the wake. At that point your can start building your edge, the harder you build it the father out into the flats you will do. When you get to the wake stand tall and you'll pop.
I really recommend joining learnwake.com, they have a 'HS Perfect Setup' video that will help you a lot.

One way to tell if you are edging through the wake is to watch the spray coming off your board when you are cutting in. If you watch your video, you will notice that right when you start cutting in you have a lot more spray than when you are closer to the wake. That means you are flattening off of your edge too early. The spray should be somewhat small at the start and then progressively get larger as you get closer to the wake.
I actually don't think it looks too bad besides what I said above. You HAVE to start out edging slow and build up more tension in the line as you get closer to the wake...or at least maintain the same edge from start to finish. You are definitely letting up and that is what is causing you not to get more pop and clear the wake.2008 Super Air Nautique 210TE
