1 piece of advice
 
If you could tell someone 1 piece of advice about wakeboarding; what would it be.

I'll start...............

The rope is your cane. Use the rope as you would a cane; meaning push/pull on it when needed.

Don't heel-side edge into the rocks when I'm driving.

If you're not crashing, you're not learning

mc_x15 10-14-2010 10:47 AM

Knee braces.

For newbies first trying to get up I tell them to "Let the boat do the work".

10-14-2010 11:33 AM

don't be nervous about riding with new people who might be better than you are. even if you just learned an ollie 180 they will be stoked for you.

clearlakescott 10-14-2010 11:56 AM

No rope no hope

mattgettel 10-14-2010 12:08 PM

wakestyle 10-14-2010 12:08 PM

strengthen your legs.

brianmiller 10-14-2010 12:50 PM

The answer to everything ..."Edge all the way through the wake, hold the handle at your hip".

Ride some switch every set, then try and learn all your regular tricks switch.

hahahahahahahahahahahahaha i love this. Best comment of the year

mattgettel 10-15-2010 5:36 AM

I think i like the marriage advice better!

tuneman 10-15-2010 6:18 AM

No matter what happens, never let go of the handle.

sexyws6mama 10-18-2010 5:06 AM

lock eyes to the shore (outwards)........never down

stevo8290 10-18-2010 8:35 AM

If you leg go of the handle one more time, i'm going to tie a wire from your wiener to the handle...... then lets see if you let go

stevo8290 10-18-2010 9:42 AM

Well on second thought, let me turn that into advice rather than an ultimatum. Ride everyday like there is a rope tied from the handle to your wiener.... never let go.

amen to that, thought I could out pull the boat, was dead wrong and snapped my rib cartilage. Sometimes you should let go

mike3500 10-19-2010 1:24 PM

no guts no glory!!

kruiserkat 10-19-2010 1:34 PM

If sombody is letting go of the handle take 10 bucks out of their wallet and make them hold it between the handle and hand. Bet they don't let go.

If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it.............................

hyperlite 10-21-2010 4:35 AM

Dont forget the sunscreen

fredlap 10-21-2010 4:52 AM

Work on your style! Don't copy anybody! Poke and grab everything in your own way! Style is what define a rider!!!

BobbyHazel 10-21-2010 12:35 PM
