Hi i have been wakeboarding 2 weeks <BR> <BR>I can jump comftably} w2w, also switch, healside and toeside 180's w2w also switch as well. Im looking for ideas of what to progress 2. I decided that every trick i learn i will also learn switch at the same time, do you think this is a good idea? <BR> <BR>Thanks everyone <BR> <BR>Andy

Great and wonderful idea. go for the grabs! Start grabbing and tweaking all of your w2w's and 180's. Backside 180's are a great trick too.

I wish I was that naturally talented! Lip slides are fun - KEEP THE HANDLE AT YOUR WAIST. Another thing that I really like is backward lipslides. Approach the wake healside and switch directions quickly at the top of the wake as if to go back into the flats. Hopefully you break your back fins loose and slide backwards. Look over your shoulder at the people in the boat but remember to keep the handle low at your waist (more like on your butt). Obviously, you do this one handed.

i went out wakeboarding for second time this weekend, and my first trick that i pulled off was the backside boardslide out in the flats... i was riding out with my lead hand on my heelside, and just decided that I should try it.... turned the board and just slid... felt really good... all the guys in the boat were stunned that i actually tried it... (i ride at a ski school here in houston with a bunch of guys from denmark).. when i finally fell on that run they informed me that im supposed to do the frontside first... so i got back up and did the frontside lipslide a couple times... i never tried any of them when i was on my toeside... maybe that will be next....
