Just tried wakesurfing for the first time yesterday...enjoyed it a lot more than I though I would. We had 7 in the boat all on one side and the ballast tanks filled on my SAN, and it gave a beuatiful wake, especially on the driver side (which is good for me, as I'm goofy). A few questions... -is there a good place to read up on some good beginner tips? -rode my buddy's HL Broadcast. Good board for beginners and progressing? WW guide says it's for a "wakeboard" riding style, and all of us are definitely coming from wakeboarding. Any other boards that are good for beginners and progressing? I'm 6'0, 180 lbs if that makes a difference. We seemed to get the best wake when my buddy was going in a constant wide radius turn. Sometimes I would come down the face of the wake though, and i'd be less than a foot from the swim platform. Is that correct? Should I be worried about carbon monoxide poisoning if I'm riding that close? -what exactly are 3's and shuv-its, and what are the skills a beginner should be focusing on? I'm assuming the real focus is to be able to really ride for a good amount of time w/o the rope...
