Kids tried wakeboarding twice before with no getting out of the water, we were at wits end. Studied this video and practice in the backyard. Kids were up and going today. This has been the best help by a long shot. My kids are now able to get up everytime. They thank you heaps. They now also love another sport that I do. And we do this as a family which is best of all. I bookmarked this for anyone else I know. Stay upright and thanks again
Thank you very much for this video! I have approx 30 failed attempts to get up(deep water). Then I found this video and got up on my first try today(Had only one miss in 5-6 attempts today)
I spent a whole day plowing the water and trying to stand above the water using all my strength to get up not allowing the board to sink beneath me. I was beat up at the end with no success. I know it is not a strength issue. This video explains everything. I have the feeling I will get up right away next time.
HUGE HELP! Ate it for days until I watched the video. Got up today on the first try...and I'm a 40-something chick, so this will work for anyone.Thanks for posting this great video!
Thank you so much for posting this! I'm new to wakeboarding, actually I've only attempted once but it was too cold. This is very helpful and I cant wait to try it!!
bro that helped me soooo much today was my first day wakeboarding, and what i was doing was i would get on top of the water but then fall foward, and my guess is that i rotated to early and did not keep my arms relaxed, i was fighting the jet ski because i was nervous as hell LOL
Thanks for such a great video! I was having a terrible time trying to wake board on the lake. We took a break watched your video, and wall aa I was wake boarding like a pro very next try. Thanks!
I tried wakeboaring yesterday for my first time, I had a lot of trouble getting it on top of the surface. What could I do to make sure it’s not pulling me further down into the water?
so question about wakeboarding. the reason that I was never good at waterskiing is becuz in waterskiing you have to push down on the water, but do u have to push down on the water in wakeboarding? becuz if u do then wakeboarding is definitely for people with coordination and not moxie, becuz people with coordination are really heavy on their feet, but people with moxie like me are really light on their feet.
Just tried this weekend and failed miserably. I was plowing through and was trying to keep the top of the board above the water so much and fighting it. It looks like I need to lower the front and let it cut through from the top and pivot up. Thanks for the vid!
The water is not dirty, It's just that the camera that they used has poor contrast in the quality, Therefor making the water seem a darkish brown type of colour.
The slightly rough or choppy water is slicker than smooth. I am talking ripples under 4 inches. The ripples or waves allow air to get under the board which in turn causes less friction or drag.
inside the wake the water is choppy and rough and i never slid much... but once i got outside of the wake i almost slipped because the water is so smooth because the boat isn't messing with the water far away
I think it is much easier to just try to turn the board 90 almost at the same time as the boat starts to drag, in that way i just pop up from the water
It will a little bit. Some of the skills transpose but definitely not all. Getting up is probably the worst. I learned snowboarding just this past winter and just started wakeboarding. The whole getting towed from a rope is like getting towed by a surface ski lift and you need to lean backwards instead of forwards like on a snowboard. Also the edging is as solid on a wakeboard, its more like deep powder riding. The easiest way I've found to get up so far is start out like they say and when the board is giving you some lift turn to your riding position and stand up right away, the board is so large it will plane out almost right away. I tried planning sideways and that seems like an advanced skill.
FIRST: that is the nastiest water ever SECOND: I found that this shit doesn't work It took me at least 20 failed attempts before I thought to myself "what if i turned the board a second after the boat starts moving" The second attempt I got up... Maybe it is just me but when everyone says "stay on your ass" that is the most fucking difficult thing to do
This is the stupidest way of getting up all you gotta do is right when the board starts to plane pop your leading foot up you get up so easy just don't lean forward
It makes no sense to keep on riding sideways in a sitting position! Just turn the board and stand up when you're up off the water. It'll come natural to you.
Still one of the best videos on the topic. I still use this video for new guests on our boat.

Thanks mate, I'm 50 and tried this after watching, it helped a LOT, thanks again, steve, australia
Is the same technique used in regular water? I only ask because it looks like you're wakeboarding in coffee.
Its called lake water
They have a lake where the trees dye the water.
Averitt13 lol
Averitt13 Haha, I thought it was a sewage dump or something.
XDG DazeX I don't want to go to the lakes you've been to.
I already know how to wakeboard but this video is somehow entertaing to watch lol
The best instructional video I found. It leads you very easy through the mechanics. I can wait to try it!
Thanks so much for this video. I watched it several times and managed to get up on my first try this past weekend. It made the experience great!
Had problems yesterday learning on my own, watched this video and litterarily got up 1st try, very easy with some instuctions
HUGE HELP! Ate it for days until I watched the video. Got up today on the first try...and I'm a 40-something chick, so this will work for anyone.Thanks for posting this great video!
when i wake board with my friends dad, he guns it at the beginning so u have to immediately turn ur wakeboard or eat shit
This is actually the most helpfully video I've seen so far :)
Thank you so much for posting this! I'm new to wakeboarding, actually I've only attempted once but it was too cold. This is very helpful and I cant wait to try it!!
Thanks, guys! Your video helped Four! friends get up on a wakeboard for the very first time yesterday.
Great help that video, been struggling for a few months but watched your video closely and popped up pretty much every go...
bro that helped me soooo much today was my first day wakeboarding, and what i was doing was i would get on top of the water but then fall foward, and my guess is that i rotated to early and did not keep my arms relaxed, i was fighting the jet ski because i was nervous as hell LOL

This helped me sooo much! Thanks alot
Best video on youtube for wakeboard
Such an awesome help. For real. Stay sweet guys.
Good tutorial !! This helped me few time ago !!! THANK YOU !!!
Very nice! Thanks.
I tried wakeboaring yesterday for my first time, I had a lot of trouble getting it on top of the surface. What could I do to make sure it’s not pulling me further down into the water?
I have watched other videos and some say keep your board out of the water but u have your board under water witch is best for a beginner
I think you helped me a lot
How fast does the boat have to go when doing the deep water start?
so question about wakeboarding. the reason that I was never good at waterskiing is becuz in waterskiing you have to push down on the water, but do u have to push down on the water in wakeboarding? becuz if u do then wakeboarding is definitely for people with coordination and not moxie, becuz people with coordination are really heavy on their feet, but people with moxie like me are really light on their feet.
what ever is pulling does it have to pull hard or slow to get up?? i can't get up like that. i get up on the side only
hi can i use a few seconds of this video (the animation) in my video? i will not use content without permission
does anybody know how much horsepower you need in order to get up on a wakeboard?
Awsome imma try it:D
if i dont have tower can i wakebording?
Will def try this.. t-minus 3days!!!
Just tried this weekend and failed miserably. I was plowing through and was trying to keep the top of the board above the water so much and fighting it. It looks like I need to lower the front and let it cut through from the top and pivot up. Thanks for the vid!
So I can get up if I turn my board early but if I keep it sideways the drag is too heavy because of the fins. Any suggestions?
its actually creepy how accurate they made it look on land
The water is not dirty, It's just that the camera that they used has poor contrast in the quality, Therefor making the water seem a darkish brown type of colour.
I have a 2012 Ronix Bill with four 1" fins.
the water looks like fire
The slightly rough or choppy water is slicker than smooth. I am talking ripples under 4 inches. The ripples or waves allow air to get under the board which in turn causes less friction or drag.
Thanks for the video! This will help people who want to learn on our Mastercraft!

Hey,
Great video!
Have a good day :)
Been snowboarding for a while will that help me ??

Your balance
What is the speed that the boat has to go?
michele mignogna any as long as you do it correctly
Quentin h thank you
getting up is the easiest part of wakeboarding. Staying up is the hard part. That water can be slippery
BAJS VATTEN!
am now a decent wakeboarder, but i still turn the board as getting up instead of after as says on video
Yes
I wish the guy was wearing trunks where you can see the guys knees or legs...doesn’t help he’s explaining something I can’t see anyways
I'm scared it will pull my arms out of their sockets. Any advice here? :/
it won't if you get up. if the boat is going fast too quickly and you're still underwater then that's when you let go
it won't if you get up. if the boat is going fast too quickly and you're still underwater then that's when you let go

What do you mean?
hello,
Wonderful video!
have a great evening :o)
if you have a center fin and it is removable, then take it off
Dice?
put on smaller fins. put 0.8 " fins
The reason the water is brown is because the tanners from trees and leaves being decomposed in the water
if you are feet works if not 😱
no one:
not a soul:
everyone in the comments: tHe WaTeR iS sO diRtY
0:20 ....dice dancing on beach?
how dirty is that water
Holy crap, I was doing everything WRONG!
That's some dirty fuckin water
I could never get up but my gf did I was embarrassed lol but she
Noooooo... The way I wud do it is I wud slide my ass along the ground on land!!!
lol thought this was for wake skateing
BROWN water!!! O:
Educate yourself on " tannins ".
that is some dirty ass water

that water looks nasty!
FUCK NO unless you get outside of the wake...
that looks like sewer water

Can u look at my video and tell me if u can see my mistake
Hardly stupid since this is the way pretty much every experienced wakeboarder does it...
Thats stupid to let the board stay underwater..... that makes it so much easier to be pulled under
video helped but that lake is nasty
i dont know why im watching this i can 360 haha
That water looks disgusting
