    and you would highly benifit from it


  2. HELLL YESS WHERE U FROM I WILL GET U SOME from a wakeboarder sickest sport on earth

  3. Wakeboard lessons from someone who as been riding for a while or even an expert coach will certainly progress your abilities faster than going out struggling.  I would highly recommend it.

  4. it all depends. have you ever tried water sports before involving balance and strength? skiing,i think, is the biggest prep for wakeboarding. if you know how to ski it will defitlnley, which means you wont need leasons you'll only need a few basic tips:

    1: keep you weight on your backfoot at all times

    2: it will hurt when leaning on your backfoot, but you'll get use to it eventually

    3: use the lean technique you would have learned in skiing, which is when you turn you lean

    4: dont be afraid of trying new things like going out of the wake

    but, if you have skiid before, i'd probably recommend that you do skiing instead of wakeboarding lessons for a few reasons:

    1: skiing is cheaper

    2: you learn 1 new sport while preping for wakeboarding

    3: and you'll learn all the essentials for wakeboarding.

    good luck!!!

  5. As long as your confident and athletic you should be fine without lessons, but it would help if you had someone who knows what there doing on the boat to give you some guidelines.

  6. No because getting up on a wakeboard is easy. All you need to do is lean to get up and then it is real easy to move around. If you are going to do tricks and stuff, then yes get lessons, but only after you know how to get up. All you need is someone who has wakeboarded before to tell you what to do and you can get up.

    Hold the rope near your stomach and have the rope run over your board. When the boat starts to pull you, then either put your left, regular stance, or right foot, goofy stance, forward and put most of your weight on your back foot. If you have ever skateboarded or snowboarded then put the same foot you had in front in front when you go wakeboarding. If you haven't, then go kick a wall or somethin and whichever foot you kick with is the foot you put in the back. When you get up in the water, then keep the rope near your waist so that you will have more control. Turn left/right by putting your weight onto your heels/toes. Also when you are wakeboarding don't be stiff, just stay loose and have fun.

  7. no i am 11 and i just went wakeboarding its not too tough once u get the hang of it but trust me u will be sore the next day!!!!!!!

  8. Yes i would because you can get better faster and your learning from experts
