Is wake size important

Is wake size important or is it all down to technique I feel I got good technique but my jumps are pretty lame...

wake size does matter a lot! I used to ride in really small washy wakes and its very frustrating... not saying that mu technique was really good, but I was doing ok, and i could not go w2w! Firs time I rode on a slightly bigger wake, I got w2w. When i rode behind a wakeboard boat, it was so much better and easier. Sure, there are people that can go huge on small wakes, but I really like having a big one! or at least a well formed wake

thanks feel bit better now...was starting to think i was never gona get good air...we have a bayliner may have to get some fat sacks

imo technique is very important!!! But, depends on the rider. When I first started, a large wake was very intimidating...usually went half a** and would have the "fall" of the day! Sooo, to get use to a larger wake, we let the rope all the way out...that way I could get the feel of jumping the first wake. When I was somewhat consistent and landing close to the other wake, we brought the rope all the way in. I was finally able to clear the wake and then eventually cleared a ts w2w.
Once I was comfortable and got an idea of what I felt my board doing, the larger wake was definitely a PLUS!!! I've been wakeboarding for about 9 months now...still in the beginner stage! If you get a chance try to ride behind different boats, wish I would have. Sometimes going behind a boat that I'm not use to it affects my riding, mental blocks!!!
Technique and Wake go hand in hand!!!!

You can play with your trim tab, 1/4 up was pretty good on our old boat and shorten your rope a little. It's a little harder to keep the speed constant on an i/o but I found that was important too.
Good Luck

This is my third season in saying that it took the whole first season to get up and along..the second season It was only at the end I had the nerve to go over the wake at all..this season I have progressed so much have no fear got good technique and board control am so addicted it full on winter and I am still out in my fullwetsuit...got a new board EDEN but have tried heaps of diffrent bindings LF are the best but the variations frm xs to small are quite a jump in size need something in the middle...thanks for the trim tab tip will give that a go

forgot to add the 2nd season I found out I was pregnant so the fear factor then was a good thing..bubs is neally 2 now and can already say wakeboarding

Anyone who tells you "size doesn’t matter" has a small one. This applies to most scenarios.

you got to buy fat sacks with a bayliner... IMO they dont make a decent small wake w/o weight
