There are a lot of sites but here are a few: wakeside.com, buywake.com, wake-space.com are all good sites with good customer service and free shipping on orders over $100 (I think).

just relax and don't over think anything.... one thing is look at the boat not at your board just feel it not see it. it is balance like when you ride your bike or if you skate board it is something you have to feel when you are riding not see. once again more than anything relax and have fun with it it is wakeboarding for crying out loud.

Shawn has it right. Relax and don't look down. It helped me at first to let go with my back hand. This will allow you to ride sideways without feeling like you're in a twisted position. Good luck
