This study deals with the pressure peak position shift with deadrise angle during the initial phase of a two-dimensional (2D) wedge water entry. The finite volume method with volume of fluid (VOF) and dynamic mesh technique is used to simulate the water entry process of the 2D wedges with the moderate deadrise angles within the range alpha = 20 deg-60 deg. The results show that with the increasing deadrise angle, the pressure peak position shifts from the spray root to the wedge apex. And, the critical deadrise angle of pressure peak position shift is identified in the range between 40.8 deg and 41 deg, which is more precise than previous studies. In the initial stage of water entry of a 2D wedge, the pressure on wedge side is determined by the dynamic pressure term and unsteady term simultaneously. For the spray root position, at small deadrise angles, the unsteady term is stronger than the dynamic pressure term; at large deadrise angles, the former is weaker than the later.
