Shaun is such a good instructor! I bought a wake board last week and jumped HS wake to wake for the first time in a decade after watching his fundamentals video. Then I shortened the rope and started jumping TS, and his comments in this video are exactly my issue. Such a knowledgeable and useful rider, thanks Shaun!!
Used this information today and went from being sketched every time I hit toeside to enjoying the flow and clearing toeside with minimal effort. Shaun you are the man (as everyone already knows).
Love the great feedback Andrew! Happy to help!
Helpful info
This was so well explained. I'm definitely a heelside hero, but the next time I get out I'll look into leaning against the rope to do some toeside hits. Thanks so much Shaun!
Happy to help Yoyo!
This explanation is brilliant! It's a miracle how a man who is so good in wakeboarding, understands what is inside a beginner's head. Shaun, thank you so much for your videos!
Thanks! I really appreciate that! I like riders to understand what’s actually happening so they can take the understanding and apply their own style
Man I’m gonna be late now since I have in person school, whatever as long as I get to watch them is fine by me
Kenny, I shouldn't be liking this comment w a thumbs up, but I did 😃
Amazing video, not only are you a great wakeboard you are a great scientist! I love how you are able to explain the physics that go into wakeboarding. It really has improved my ability to wakeboard watching your videos!
Great feedback Nicholas! The more you understand the "why" behind riding, the more you can improve and understand why things go well sometimes and catch yourself when they don't.
This is pure gold. Thanks for making this!
For sure! Thanks for watching and the positive feedback
Tried a toeside last year, did a faceplant like a boss😎 did blow my eardrums though😂
Ouch! Sorry to hear that. (see what I did there?) Sven- I hope this video helps you out with this year's toeside!
-✌️
@@Shaun.Murray HAHA mate your amazing, this is definitely going to help. Keep doing this amazing work and many greetings from the netherlands🙏🏻✌🏻
Is the forefoot straight when toe side? Do not bend? Does that mean my knees are locked?
Not locked out for sure but stacking bones is generally the best foundation. What's stacking bones?...

First time I hit wake to wake toe side was the best. Made flowing from side the side so much fun. I'm just getting back at it after about 10 years. I look forward to experiencing that feeling again.
Love this Flatlander! It makes such a diff being able to get some rhythm going rather than basically starting and stopping while you taxi back. Very worth it to take the time right?!
Omg !!!! I review all my video, that’s what I did wrong !!!
I have watched a lot of different toeside wake jump explanations on TH-cam lately and this one is by far the best. Thank you, Shaun!
Thanks for the props Josh 👊🏼
Shaun I seem to catch an edge a lot, is there a way to avoid it or do I just sort of have to consciously lift my forward food higher?
Hard to say without knowing what edge you're catching. You can try to explain here and I'll see what I can do but if you'd like to send some video clips head to www.shaunmurray.com and click coaching. I do some online coaching if we can't meet up in person.
I wish I had heard this years ago... I have struggled with toe side for years. Thank You! I will put this in to practice this summer.
Uuhhhhh, Shaun, . . . This is about the best unlocking ever ! ! Thank you kindly ! !
Love to hear it Dale!
everything just clicked in my brain for toeside never thought about when I cut out for a heel side jump I'm using my toeside edge. In some weird way, it made it click in my brain
the launch side of your wake has no foam whereas the landing side does. How are you obtaining this with the boat? Are you taking ballast in on one side?
That happens sometimes w bigger wakes as you pull out to jump the wake it leans the boat over causing the big wake to "roll" over
there's no side like toeside!!!
Literally logged out from home office and the notification popped up 2 sec later , right on time to get schooled !
This is gonna help a ton, cased the wake and caught a gnarly backside edge last time I tried to go for a TS wake to wake. Definitely because I was leaning at the wake too much and not enough board angle. Love how everything is such a mental game while wakeboarding 🤣
You nailed it Aren! Waaaay more mental than physical
Thanks Shaun...here on your recommendation! Looking forward to incorporating when it warms up...I am almost positive I have been leaning ahead of my board when trying toeside jumps!
How simular is this to snowboarding which I already do.
Has some similarities which can transfer over but for sure some unique things to it. You can check out some of my "How to" content to help out if you'd like
Shaun!! You have awesome videos. I locked in toeside w2w’s over the past few weeks watching this. Working on FS 180s now and about ready to take them w2w. Do you think I’m good to throw a backroll? That’s my intention for the year. Low risk high reward!
Go for it! Keep the speed pretty slow, around 18ish mph
I did it! Got it around one wake a few times but didn’t put it down yet. After reviewing footage, I was not cutting through the top of the wake, cut out to far and did not take my back hand off soon enough. Going to get it next time!!! Then take it w2w.
33 y/o dad, first full season on a wakeboard :) Seems crazy to be getting inverted.
Thanks for the content!
Shaun, what about handle placement? I know the closer the handle is to your core, the better. But can the handle be further out?
Keep the handle still and move your core to the handle. You can pull it into your core but that tends to lead to unstacking, basically crouching. Think about arching your lower back, which allows your shoulders to go back, leaning against the handle and you can leave the handle where it is. BUT, sometimes on toeside or even heelside, you need to push the handle down. I often see students lifting the handle as they approach the wake
Shaun, in your opinion, should a newer rider be more comfortable clearing wakes on heels n toes or learn to ride switch first ? Thanks
I think learning switch at 10-11 mph first is a good thing to do first. Low risk high reward
@@Shaun.Murraythanks man! Love your videos, and passion for driving the sport. Keep up the awesome content
I need a new rope. My got sun torched being left out in storage under the house in the desert...
What rope? Unless you have an extra lying around.. Venmo ready 🙌💪
Sorry don't have a rope to send/sell ya:) But I do recommend the murray rope n handle package
Shaun Murray only $189 plus tax and shipping. What a deal
toe side.. gotta work on my toe side..
Balance it out grasshopper
Just forwarded this to one of my buddies because we were literally talking about several of the fundamentals you discuss in your video while we were out on the water on Monday. Thanks Shaun for making it simple & easy to understand!
🤜💥🤛
-✌️
@@Shaun.Murray I'm sure Shaun appreciates your old 90's videos of him you upload as well.
@@collin9085 Oh I definitely do.
Excellent! You break these down so well with good terminology. And "what to think about" while doing it.
Is it possible to do a load release ts back roll in the flats? I've seen you do the opposite on hs.
It's possible and have done some but def not nearly as easy as the Heelside one.
See im weird I jump toe and heel but toe feels better for me
About 1 in 500 of y'all. Be thankful for that!
Heelside Ninja here FOR SURE!!!! Trying to learn riding switch as well as getting comfortable toe side. Love your videos man. You're such a great ambassador for this sport.
Right on Wes! Stay tuned for a how to improve your switch riding edit soon!
Great stuff. Thanks for taking the time and giving back to riders trying to improve. Local water is still at 43F... so it'll be a few weeks yet before I can give these tips a try on the Murray 150 that just showed up at my door.
You'll be on the water in no time Marc!
Great explanations, clear audio, great examples. Thanks for putting these together!
Thank you soooo much for having this stuff just out there for everyone without a massive pay wall in front to slow us down. Like, I literally feel so lucky to be able to say that I am learning from Shaun Murray here in Australia while he is half way around the world. I'm making so many improvements at the moment and so fast!! You explain everything soooooo well!! Thanks Shaun :)
Honestly means a lot Matthew! I put a lot of time into these but I enjoy them bc sharing the fun is actually fun for me! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Awesoem video. Keepem coming. Me and the fam loved the lessons last wed. We will def be back.
Great having you out to OWC Steve! See ya next time ✌️
Is wake boarding like snowboarding
In many ways it is Bryce but there are definitely some differences. Check out my video on the 3 fundamentals of wakeboarding to see some of those things🤙🏽
Rn i can do a hillside tantrum but cant jump toeside at all😭
Hopefully this video helps make sense of it for ya 🤜🏼💥🤛🏼
@@Shaun.Murray it definitely did!!
I’ve always struggled with toeside jumps. I’ve always reverted to doing a toeside 180 to compensate for my lack of technique. This video is gonna help so much. Thanks Shaun!
Jeff, has a lot to do w the connection staying on your front hip. Hopefully this helps explain that more.
How did you work your back after your ankle injury? I tore my ACL while wakeboarding and am trying to get back. I was wondering if you had any tips?
Been looking for a video like this. I can almost jump wake to wake on heal side but toe side is horrible. Can't wait to try this out next weekend!
Shaun Murray can you do an ‘how to Ollie video’ Thanks
Glad you asked Brodie! th-cam.com/video/JwAtsdbB-Ws/w-d-xo.html
@@Shaun.Murray Thanks that really helps, just got your 2021 board and it is much better than my old one. Trying to learn more tricks from your videos, so far so good.
Also how to do the Ollie 180
I am so happy that these are here for me to come back to each season!! Thanks again my dude
Hi Shaun!
Oh, I got the board!!! You da man! Thanks brother. :)
I loved the bike reference,I’ve found quite a few of my bike skills transfer to wakeboarding
I watched this video for the third time and went out and hit some of my biggest toe side jumps ever today. Jumping toe side felt so much better! Thanks for this video. My riding just got a lot funner!
Love to hear it! Honestly means a lot that you're not only watched it, went and did it, but then came back to share the good news
My answer to the first question... Yup for sure 🤣
Hi my name is Clark and im a Heel side Hero lol. All right Shaun I have watched this video several times over the last few weeks now and Im going for it next time out.
Let me know how it goes Clark!
A buddy once described learning toeside as running down a steep, wet hill......that is covered in gravel......in flip flops
I can definitely feel that way. Hopefully this helps take the gravel and wetness off the hill as well as a lot of the steepness of said hill 😆
Wow! That is such a great breakdown of the toe side jump technique !!! Can’t wait to try it on my next session !!!
Right on Ghetto 👊🏼 Enjoy your ride! ✌️
You're the man! Your tutorials helped me get to a consistent heelside w2w on a fairly small wake last summer (when I first started wakeboarding). This summer I hope to get toeside w2w down as well as at least heelside w2w going switch foot. Just got my first ride in today w00t
Sorry for such a delay this time Danny! Great to hear and glad to know it made a difference in your riding this season!
Dude your videos are SUPER HELPFUL and very detailed!! Thanks dude 🤙🏻
Thanks G!
Best video so far. May I ask? As a bigger, do you hit the boat wake at a 45’ angle or a 90’ angle? I’m busy power watching your videos. How do you do a oli? Thanks for the amazing tips. ✌🏻
Thanks Jonathan! Have you checked out this video th-cam.com/video/eSJPitLMRY8/w-d-xo.html
and then this one I just released?

Thanks for your videos ^^
Dude, as a tournament skier trying to get into wakeboarding, this was be best piece of advice I’ve seen on YT, super simple
Thanks Ben 👊🏼
This is great information. Thanks Shaun.
Very very good tutorial. Like the physics angle.
Right on and thanks for watching Tube!
Wish I had this video when I started riding 20 years ago lol. You’re the best Shaun!
Better late than never 😀
I watched this a while ago and started working on my toe side jumps and I just watched it again. This makes even more sense the second time. Gonna go hit the lake in a couple of days and give this a shot!
Love the great feedback Adam and awesome to hear it's working for you!
That first minute felt like you were speaking directly to me haha
Austin- I'm so glad you've watched this! I was speaking to you, yes YOU!

Just went boarding today for the first time this year. I'm still a novice, but in 2019 I was going switch with little problem. Today, using a friend's board, I was scared to do it. My heelside jumps were sweet, but my toeside jumps were pathetic. Just as you describe, going from jumping to "trying not to fall." Part of it was the strange board. It felt really slick underfoot. Was a Hydroslide, I think, and slide around it did. But really, most of it was me being out of shape and out of practice, after staying home most of 2020. And that funny board. Did I mention that?
Anyway, thank you Shawn for explaining both the actions and the reasons for the actions. That makes it a lot easier. I can't wait for our next run on the lake. I'll be practicing!
Right On Man! Thanks for this tuition and advice, priceless! Peace & love to you and yours, stay happy Shaun
For sure Afro! Always good seeing you here:)
How does one get lessons from you?
Thank you legend ❤️
Thanks Shaun, please make more this kind of fundamental videos! Super helpful!!
Glad you liked it Samuel! Be sure to look back through my channel for a bunch more I've already done and if you have questions on any of them or ideas for more, lemme know!
Huge help! Thanks.
This video was fantastic. I have been working and improving my TS jump hard the last 2 months. Any advice to keep the line tension in the front arm for the front roll?
It's all about that connection on your front hip and keeping your back hand on the handle longer, until the peak of the flip, helps keep the handle there while learning this flip.
@@Shaun.Murray nice thanks man. I’ve watched your frontroll detention video a bunch and you talk about releasing the back hand quickly. You think maybe work it more on the front hip and keep two hands on?
Bip....Bip
That’s me !!!!
Thx a lot Master Shaun !
You can now begin to think of a new name rather than keeping the Heelside Hero title!
Yo Shaun love your videos
Shaun, thanks a lot!!! Very good explanation
My pleasure Amir!
Thanks so much, my 12-year-old son nailed this after watching this video. Doing my best to keep them from being heelside heroes
On the topic, Ik it might not be likely, but any chance on getting a review or at least thoughts on the hyperlite state 2.0 with the asymmetrical design? Great Vid btw!
ain't no side like toeside!!! :)
Might as well if you're gonna ride.
Thanks ferda tips🤟
Yerwelcome B!
colombiaaaa!!!
Hola Mateo!
@@Shaun.Murray love for all your videos
Angles wow that was a huge thing I just learned and I can totally see why my pop isn't always there. Shawn I'm always learning from your videos keep them coming.
This video is so helpful, thank you so much
Right on and thanks!
Just did a lesson with you today 😁 thank you so much it helped out a lot!
Great having you out Brogan! You crushed it!
Been to camps, done clinics, had never received tip to treat the TS W2W as a load and release, tried it out this morning and every single attempt was perfect. Thanks Shaun, keep it up
Nice
Great tips Shaun. I can't wait to get out on the water and give this a try. All of my jumps are relatively flat. No air. I think after all your videos I understand why. I will let you know once we start riding again
just started wakeboarding, really liking your videos so earned a new sub :)
Great video! Thanks!
Word!
Yeah I learned switch heel side wake to wake but toeside is just awkward
But how bout after watching this vid? Make any better sense?
@@Shaun.Murray yeah it did, I was able to get a toe side wake to wake and a toe side front 180 with it. My only problem now is that I feel like I’m dragging while cutting in toeside and even getting spray in my face but when cutting in heel side it’s normal. Does toeside require a faster speed? I go pretty slow because my boat isn’t that big.
@@burntgrass8066 Sounds like you're leaning ahead of the line. That will usually be the cause for spray in the face. And maybe too small of a board but either way, if you are leaning at the wake rather than against the line, it will cause you to get ahead of the board and water will hit your back boot or back shin.
Quality teaching, thanks buddy!
The perfect video I needed to prep for this season! Also props on what ever you are doing different. Production Quality is on point! 👌
Appreciate that EL!
Thanks for these great tips/lessons on toe side. I just wakeboarded for my first time last week and just got my new board today. Looking forward to putting these tips to work this weekend. Thanks for the great vids!
Congrats on getting up and welcome to the wakefam
Shaun Murray - living Legend
Hi Shaun, when going into wake and trying to straighten knees I feel like my back ankle is hurting, is it because I don't press on my toes enough or not work enough with my back foot?
Is it hurting when you are cutting or when hitting the wake?
@@Shaun.Murray only when hitting the wake, otherwise my foot is fine. Seems like wake is working more then my foot and wake wins.
@@andreikloc3424 Does your ankle hurt outside of this moment? Have you sprained it before?
Thanks for replaying Shaun, my ankle is good no pain. I just don't understand the moment when going on top of wake, what my feet should be doing. When I am standing tall should I still press with toes?
@@andreikloc3424 you shouldn't really have to be conscious or aware of what you're doing with your toes but rather just keep your legs strong going up the wake.
Another brilliant video
Always good teaching at all times
incredibly helpful ty
Thanks for all you do Shaun!
Good stuff!
Super helpful dude!
Great advice I love the instructional videos I love learning so I can explain better when I'm teaching the kids keep up the great work
It is super fun to teach kids!! Keep up the good job!! 🙌
