Is it hard to learn how to wakeboard?

Question

Does having snowboarding experience help?

Answer 1

the first time i wakeboarded i had never tried it before, and i hadnt even snowboarded yet. my arms were really sore, but i managed to pull myself up on the 1st try!! its tons of fun, and since your feet are strapped to the board you really dont even need to worry about them! dont expect to be doing tricks or anything the first time but youll get there! i hope you have fun!

Answer 2

no its not hard at all

Answer 3

1. Ensure that you are comfortable with whatever foot you have placed forward.

2. Keep the board on its side while in water. Do not try to stop the board from swinging round the mount.

3. Keep your arms on each side of your front knee and crouch down to make it easier to swing to an upright position.

4. More than half of your weight should be placed on the front foot when standing up.

5. Keep the pace slow while launching to make it easier to get up and later let the boat go faster.



6. Short rope makes the launch easier for beginners.

7. Ensure there are no sudden jerks in the boat.

8. Always make sure you receive instructions from someone who knows all about this sport.
