Dock has a 16'x5' section connected to a 4'x12" Platform. Has floats on the far ends of the 4'x12' and 2 floats at the head of the walkway / 16'x5' portion.

Bouncing on a far side of the beginning of the walkway produces some twisting / torsion on the walkway to the ... other... section.

Any thoughts on how to minimize this twist that don't involve repositioning the walkway floats / excessive framing?

My thoughts are of the Tacoma Narrows bridge sans oscillating feedback loop

I was going to include an ascii diagram of the framing but it would be way too phallic. I didn't account for that when designing it. I blame Excel.
