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. |
just have fun
|
build a strong foundation [balance,handle position, switch riding,body position]
|
|
Learn to jump toeside before you ever attempt heelside .
|
enjoy it!
|
Open your eyes
|
spin before flipping!
|
Don't Fu@&%n powerturn!
"See now were all happy!" |
Don't heel-side edge into the rocks when I'm driving.
|
Charge Harder
|
If you're not crashing, you're not learning
|
Knee braces.
|
For newbies first trying to get up I tell them to "Let the boat do the work".
|
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.
|
No rope no hope
|
good call scott
|
strengthen your legs.
|
The answer to everything ..."Edge all the way through the wake, hold the handle at your hip".

|
No matter what happens, never let go of the handle.
|
lock eyes to the shore (outwards)........never down
|
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
|
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.
|
Dont play tug of war with the boat. the boat will always win

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.............................
|
Dont forget the sunscreen
|
Work on your style! Don't copy anybody! Poke and grab everything in your own way! Style is what define a rider!!!
|
You wont land it if you dont try it
