don't understand fully what you're saying, but sounds like you need to put some power into your bottom turn which will give you some speed.

just ride down the face, practice your bottom turn, once you get that sorted riding the face is simple

Start paddling in the direction you want to go on the wave instead of straight toward shore.. This makes it so you don't even need to bottom turn. By the time you stand up you are already going the direction you want to go.
