Okay, say you are going to boof off to the right.  As you approach the drop you not so much as DELAY your stroke as TIME your stroke,  When it is time for the stroke, your left side will drop a little as you plant your left blade for the boof stroke.  In mid stroke, your lean now shifts to the right as your blade comes out of the water, AND you throw your weight back.  Your paddle should now be about head level, horizontal and your right blade forward and left blade back.  NOW YOU ARE BOOFIN MY SON.
