I progressed pretty fast. I wakeboarded behind a jet ski, got up 2nd try, and was outside the wake within the 1st 5 seconds. I was jumping the "wake" in about 5 minutes and doing little grabs. <BR>Here is a video of me, its about my 5th time behind a boat. <BR> <BR><a href="http://media.putfile.com/Wakeboarding-" target="_blank">http://media.putfile.com/Wakeboarding-</a>

backroll, Tantrum, TS 360, BS 360... Matt... your a beast for the 5th time behind a boat.

Bob, I can relate. You left out my favorite, Ollie 180 to faceplant/season ending concussion.
|
I think a first good 'trick' to learn is the surface 180. Its the first thing I learned after going in and out of the wakes, and it gets you comfortable riding switch right away.
