Question

How fast do u tow a wakeboarder thats trying to jump the wake?

Answer 1

not as fast as you may think, 25 is what i usually do, but i let the wakeboarder give me signals to tell me if it feels too slow or too fast, when i'm going, i like about 28

Answer 2

you don't wanna be to fast but fast enough so between 20-25 is what i do but the rider desides

Answer 3

l'm not certain about wake boarding, but the best skiing is done at 28 mph.

Answer 4

I would recomend about 18-20 mph with a bunch of people in the back of the boat, it creates a monster wake that is easy to jump, the only downside is it guzzles gas.

Answer 5

This is kind of up to the wakeboarder; I would recommend pulling them at the speed where they feel the most confortable as this will allow them the confidence to jump.   However, if you want a number, I like to ride a little bit slower than I ski...so, about 25 mph should be a good place to start; then just let the rider decide if he/she wants to go up a little or down a little.
