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?

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 Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

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! ---------- Post added 22-02-11 at 18:40 ---------- 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...

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 ---------- Post added 22-02-11 at 18:31 ---------- Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Sort of the same way you do an "ollie" on a skateboard... Something to motivate http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2oy7b4SFgE

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

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... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
