It looks to me that the bow was riding very low. Could be load near the bow that we cannot see or maybe the trim was driving the bow down. Maybe even both.

The wake was not that big, but he took it straight on, something you do not want to do, However, when he hit the wake the bow did not jump up as I would have expected from a well trimmed and well loaded boat.

If he cut the power just before hitting the wake, that could have driven the bow down as well. Bottom line, this is very unusual behavior for a boat.

Good luck out there and keep asking questions. That is how to learn.
