I dont know too much about 10 year olds surfing. I just found this pic in another post. I think its great. But as for getting kids up on a wakesurfer actually bigger is better. Its more stable and has more glide. The landloch should work. First of all make sure her PFD is a good fit. You dont want the sliding up or falling off totally. Second, i am sure she can ride while hanging on to the rope. I would hold on to the rope and pull her to the sweet spot. Dont let her carve. Too many people try to carve too early. Just get her steady in the sweet spot. It also helps to make her look at the back corner of the boat. I dont know why but it help people feel the right spot. After that its just a lot of time on the water. Hope this helps and let me know how it goes.

Here's my 11 year old on a TrickBoardz Mojo. It's a much smaller and more maneuverable board. My kids say it responds faster than the Liquid Force in the second picture. I think he's a bit bigger at than your daughter (he's 5'3" and weighs 115). Both are good options for kids. The Liquid Force is very stable. Upload
