Shift your weight from the nose to the tail, leaning against the pull of the boat as you do. Keep the rope close to your body. Grab the handle in front of you and continue riding forward.

Practice making this transition as smoothly as possible, so that there is no point of hesitation when you reach the backwards riding position.
