ok so i just went out and brought myself a wakeboard and have been learning behind my mates boats and brothers jetski... anyone else into this?

Epitaph · 22-02-11, 11:44

i am... i just want a boat!

I'm into it, head to the water sports centre in patterson lakes every now and then.

A mate is buying one of these, and then I'll become a pro.

Cos I'm pretty useless at the minute ha ha

You can come with us then Kane! Wellsy that boat is awesome! I've been behind a slalom boat or jetski ATM hanging to get behind one with a decent wake... Although next time we have x2 fat sacks to through in!

You guys got any tips for a beginner? I can clear the wake heelside and do small grabs etc havent tried toeside yet tho. And have tried a couple of tantrums but am finding it hard to commit to enough pop before rotating...

osk · 22-02-11, 18:23

to get the correct pop when u reach the top of the wake, its hard to explain but u kinda need to push down or straightem your legs. that way u will get more pop and be able to go bigger etc

Sort of the same way you do an "ollie" on a skateboard...

Let me know when you are going on a sunday mark!

VLT 88 · 22-02-11, 20:03

Yeah I'm fine with it on a straight jump, but when u go for a tantrum you flatten out and just touch toeside for a split second before you through the rotation for the backflip. Just a lil tricky to sus it cutting in so hard lol but I'll give a go...
