I haven't been too into wake surfing but my boat came with a "real" Rocky Xanadu 6' surf board which is reportedly a good short board for small waves. I can toss the rope and surf behind my boat with a little bit of carving back and forth action but that's about it.
Anyway, I'm taking the wife and kids to Pensacola later today. I figured I'd check the surf report just for fun even though it's not an area really known for surfing. Tomorrow actually looks pretty good though with 5.9' waves predicted in the afternoon.
I figure I'll bring my surf board and give it a shot. Obviously I'll have to figure out how to paddle and jump up to a standing position vs. dropping in from the swim platform or using the rope but does anybody else have any tips? I figure I should be good to go as far as actually riding the wave is concerned once I get up and in position but not sure how tough it will be to get there.
