Honestly, I surprised myself in this one. Can't believe how many things I was able to do! But I have to say, it's wayyyyy more difficult than I ever thought it would be.
Thank you so much for watching
Dave

I've learned all of my tricks on a wake skate for wake boarding by cutting toward the wake and doing the maneuver in the air and landing feet first in the water, then transfer it to a wakeboard. It hurts a lot less than falling on the wakeboard!

yeah it's such a good technique, specially for raleys!!

Amazing video as always - standing up on a knee board is also really fun because you can turn even less than on a wake skate! Also any chance you could try foiling under the cable?

@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder 7 жыл бұрын

hahaha that would be class on the kneeboard. I'd b scared i'd rip all the anchor ropes on the foil on cable haha

Hey I am trying to get into wake-boarding, and I would like to know the best setup for a beginner

@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder 7 жыл бұрын

Jake, that's awesome you're getting into it. So for a complete beginner, it depends if it's for the boat or cable. But basically if it's cable, i'd advice a 'flex' board, and if it's for boat, i'd advice a 'traditional core' board which doesnt flex. Then for bindings, if you think it's just you who'll be using the setup, then I'd recommend closed toe bindings, but if you have a few friends wanting to use the board, i'd say open toe as they are more adjustable for different feet sizes. I'm a big obrien guy, so I'd recommend for the boat something like the valhalla, the format or the contra (all very easy to use boards) and then for cable the freemont or even the SOB. Hope that helps!

Having not done it yet, I keep imagining this being easier than skateboarding, because of the margin of error, in skating you have to land pretty much in the direction your going but with wake skating you have more room to twist into where you want to go. Am I arrogantly wrong? lol I'll find out when I get one
