The 3 Fundamentals of Wakeboarding with Shaun Murray Mic'd Up
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ต.ค. 2020
- Want to get more out of your wakeboarding with less effort? It’s been awhile since my last how-to video, so with this one, we’re taking it back to the very fundamentals of riding.
Will we call it The Triangle? The Pyramid? Who knows! But it comes down to three basic things: your body position, your connection, and leaning against the line. In this video, I go mic’d up with BbTALKIN to cover each of those for you, to show you how to incorporate them into your riding, and to answer one of the questions I am most frequently asked… “Do I have to squat before I jump???”
Let’s call this the Wake Fundamental Triangle: stack up, connect, lean against the line, and enjoy YOUR ride!✌️

Watching you wake to wake gives me so much confidence. Then I get out there and I am like how the F did he make this look so easy lol!
Seriously, he makes it look like any schmuck should be able to get out there and wake to wake 1st time
I’ve started copying his form when jumping and I can feel myself getting closer every time I jump. I’ve been able to clear the wake for years now but I used to have to try to do it. I’d be cutting too hard and trying to pop to much and it just wasn’t working. I started trying to look like him and now I clear it with ease. Body position makes such a huge difference it’s not even fully
@@jefffedorvich9423 I hear that man. Ive only had about 4 sessions under my belt but i think im progressing pretty good. Like you said I think im trying too hard to pop off the wake. Im excited for my next ride because this video really resonated with me. the trampoline analogy and stacking your bones really hit home. I have good feelings about my next ride!
Matt I don’t know if it’s just me but I struggled with getting pop for a while. I watched the few videos he has about unloading and stacking bones and they really helped. Ones I got the wake to wake down without squatting it made it a million times easier to add the squatting in. Also maybe it’s just me but I noticed pushing off the wake is more of like a Ollie motion than it is standing straight up. I don’t know that’s just what it feels like to me. I think a lot of the pop comes from the back leg. At least on heel side
he's yawning as he does it, I'm screaming inside like a little biatc$
shaun literally beats everyone out there in terms of education and demonstration in your videos.
Thanks Scope 👊🏼 honestly means a lot!
Turning 70 years, I was not able to get up on my wakeskate anymore. I thought this was the end of my riding. After watching your starting video, I discovered my mistakes on starting. I'm not as strong as I used to be, so the less stress on the start made all the difference. I hope to continue learning new things as I continue to ride. Thanks for the tips.
Great to hear Doug! Love that your'e getting out there and havin some fun!
Reset button! for those of us who ride well but need to break bad habbits. Great video ..!
Agreed. I can l can land tantrums but it’s nice to be reminded of this stuff. Gives you something to focus on improving while riding to keep you more stable
@@jefffedorvich9423 I need to remind myself of this stuff too:) Was using these concepts today while I took a set in between lessons at OWC.
You're the man for so many reasons, one of which is you taking the time and effort to share your expertise in videos like this. I've spent hours watching them over and over and it's helped my wakeboarding immensely! Thanks a million!
Thanks for watching Danny!
I've been wakeboarding recreationally now for like 14 years and I always felt like I lacked air on my toeside jumps and no one ever corrected me. I'm sitting here like 🤯 why didn't I ever think of this. Glad I listened to TH-cam for suggesting this video in my feed. And thanks to the legend for taking time out of his day to show us and get a mic set up on the water! 👏👏👏
Right on Carlos! Thanks for the great feedback as well!
Thanks! These are the kind of tips I need to refresh myself at the beginning of the season. I still ride, and I’m 55!
Nice!
Thank you for the tips!! This is my fav thing to do 😁
I’m a mid 30’s heavier guy and just learned behind my tri-toon this summer. Just riding straight behind is a chore for me. I’m going to keep learning and practicing.Thanks for making these very helpful videos.
You make it look soon easy. I am an old guy(54) just learning how to wake board. I love the sport but have trouble getting air. Your videos have been a tremendous help. Thanks for sharing 👍
Always love the lessons. Best wakeboard instruction on TH-cam! Peace!
Thank you very much I did it off the Isle of Wight at sea great guidance great board 👍
Thanks so much! This will help solve exactly what I’ve been struggling with. It’s like you made this video just for me.
That really connected the dots I’ve picked up from all your previous videos,I’ve been starting all my sessions with some stacked max cuts to convince my brain it’s the best way to go and it has brought my game way up,thanks Shaun!
Thank you for another great video. That BbTALKIN system is great!
I've been riding for a long time (20 year) and this video is still really useful. I am going to go out, work on and hopefully improve my technique. Great video, Thanks.
Maaaan that boat cliff hanger!!!!
Wink:)
Great video, excellent technique tips from a master of wakeboarding! Thanks again, Shaun!
I’m 55 years old and have been trying off and on for the past 10 years to get up and enjoy wakeboarding. I watched your videos on how to get up and 3 fundamentals and holy cow I’m wakeboarding. 6 for 6 getting up and moving around. Thank you so much!!!! Showing up my daughter.
Love to hear it Kevin!
I've seen all your videos and they have helped me a ton, but now I've got my wife and 2 girls watching you they have improved dramatically. Thank you for you videos. We enjoy watching them
Love hearing this Ryan! Especially that your fam is joining the fun as well!
Been trying for 2 summers now and finally landed a heelside wake to wake jump! Thank you for putting all these high quality informational videos for free on youtube. It really makes the sport a lot more accessible for those of us who don't have access to good teachers. Your video on slow speed wake to wake and short cut out wake to wake really showed me the important part of where the pop and power comes from. Now on to switch riding and working on toe side.
Thank you Shaun!
Love the feedback Starki
thanks for the tips - looking back videos of my own riding, I realize my postures have been all wrong !!!
For sure Edwin! I hesitate to say things are wrong but rather, less efficient.
Amazing stuff Murray!
Love the BbTalkin! I purchased mine a couple of years ago and it helps sooooo much with new riders. The communications seems to make the riders relax more and I can give them instant feedback. Highly recommend. My wife hates it though... She's tired of me telling her to move ballast around when I'm behind the boat.. lol
Shaun, Thank you so much for this one! As a surfer, you rarely straight up, so this is very different for me. I did well my first time wakeboarding, but my lower back and arms were getting worn out. Now I understand why. THANK YOU! You make the concepts very clear and easy to understand. Spring is coming. I can't wait to try all the stuff I am learning from you. I'm subscribed now, and my nephews are, too.
That is exactly what I do on toeside! I am going to give this a try next time I'm out. Thanks!!
Love the videos. Just bought my first wake boat a month and a half ago to bring the family together and it has certainly accomplished that. We go every weekend now and some weekday evenings. I’m 56 and having a blast with my kids, family and a bunch of my kid’s friends. We get better every time we go out. Enjoy Your Ride! PS-all my kids and their friends think we’re the coolest parents around.
Great videos! Thank you for all the good information, and tips.
Love it! This changes the game. Thank you
I just tried the way Shawn said use the board like a wing under water and slowly come to the surface of the water. It worked great and with very little effort. Thank you...this has made an older guy like me make this sport so much more enjoyable.
Love to hear it 👊🏼
Great video for everyone to learn or just enjoy and I’ve used your how to videos to learn new tricks and keep up the great work 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Can't wait to try this on the water, great video
Shaun your my idol man ,When i was 12 my dad got me your detention board and vhs tape to learn how to wakeboard was just following the board as a kid ,now im carving jumping switching and very comefortable on my board and continue watching your vids , my little sister is now learning on your vids, keep up the killer work your helping people in a big way man thank you!!! coming from Canada british columbia
The Clearest instruction I've ever seen!!!
Thanks SJC! And thanks for watching:)
I cannot thank you enough you just explained every issue I have been having with skiing and wakeboarding! Thank you 😊
Love it! Thanks for the comment KK 👊🏼
I'm 44 years old and I got up (and stayed up) on a wakeboard for the first time this week because of this video. Thanks @Shaun.Murray! Your instructional videos are second to none.
New to wake boarding at 48 and Shaun Murray has been a great resource. Thank you Shaun! As soon as I watched your first video on getting up I was instantly up and wake boarding. Looking forward to clearing the wake this week. Thank you Sir, your a great instructor!
Thanks for the great feedback James! Hope you're getting some good time on the water ✌️
Awesome video and great info as usual, Shaun!
Thank you for the video. I have never been on a wakeboard and after watching your video I tried it this weekend and was up on my first try. Yes I do ski but this is slightly different and a lot of fun. Thanks for the help. At 60+ it was great to learn something new.
Love to hear this Mike!
as someone very new at wake boarding i just wanna thanks! really helped!
Good stuff shaun. Inspires me to go out in the water and keep practicing
Wonderful tips. This gives me confidence. It's like any sport proper technique and form is everything. Keep them coming!
Right on and thanks E-Man!
best advise ever! thx Shawn
Just starting @ 44. This video is a huge help as my body awareness was not great when I attempted the last few rides. This will give me something to focus on and become more comfortable. Great job and Thank You!
Jason, I started at 52 and love it! Everyone around me only waterskied so they couldn’t give any advice. Then I found Shaun’s videos and I progressed instead of trying things that I had no business trying. Knocked myself out in my second outing trying to jump. Caught the wake and did a face plant and the board hit me in the back of the head, lol. Thats when I found Shaun. He has helped me learn without the pain of crazy falls. He’s inspiring the way he gives back. We got this!
Great instructional video!
Thanks!!
Can't thank you enough! This has finally helped me to gain enough speed for corners!
Love to hear it
very useful. thank you!!!
Many thanks Shaun 🤟
👊🏼
I freaking love these videos
Thanks for watching Andrew!
Amazing tips and explained perfectly 👍🎯💯
Thanks Heinester👊🏽
Great breakdown. I’m going to focus on the basics on my first few outings this summer after a 3 tear wake boarding ab injury. I’m scared but keeping your video in mind will hopefully keep me focused and relaxed. Love all your advice, Shaun! PEEAAAACE! ✌🏼
Start easy and don't forget the fun in just carving around. We too often skip over the fact that we are standing on water and it's not only an amazing thing happening but a cool feeling when we apply pressure to an edge and it sends us in a direction while we can swing back and forth behind the boat. Enjoy your ride...after a long break! PEACE!
Magnificent 👍
🤯🏆🔥 Bro this is the most clear instruction I've seen. A million high fives. Thanks. 🤜🤛
Thanks Justin! And thanks for checkin out my content! 🤜🏽 💥 🤛🏽
gonna go try some of this out..
great video! very helpful
OMG Shaun, this was SOOO helpful! I wish there was a Love button. Please do more mic'd up. I think you have solved my inconsistencies with getting over the wake toeside. Lean against my back shoulder to stay connected. Not lean to the right. I wish this video was done 4 or 5 years ago. You always make it look so effortless. BTW, Paul says hi. Bonnie C.
Great to hear Bonnie! And will take your request into consideration and do more mic'd up for sure. Hi Paul!
Great video and so well explained thanks Shaun ! A video dedicated to toeside jumps would be great also 😀
Always good stuff Shuan. Putting boat in the water this weekend..always come back to your channel to get my head in the game.
Thanks Z! Hope you're having a good weekend on the water
thanks this helped a lot
Right on Lucas!
Thx a lot from France !!!
Yesterday i tested "leaning against the line" - it's AMAZING! 💥 And my arms and legs was not dead anymore, they felt - let's keep on going, just my wallet started to whisper...
I also triad it on jumps, feeling was strange to change something (my only trick is wake to wake), but it feels good and much more confident and easier 😌
Shaun, huge thanks for video 🤙
Thanks for the great feedback Maris!
Bro, that was explained to me better than I’ve ever heard before. I THOUGHT I had decent fundamentals. I’m stoked to get on the water to try that out. I need to come visit since it’s just barely out of season for me at home ;)
That graphic looking nice 😎
Great video. Bought my first wakeboard today. Tomorrow's gonna be interesting lol...
Nice stuff Murry your the best
Thx, very helpful
Thanks for stoppin by Mams 👊🏼
AMAZING CONTENT BROTHER! 💪 💯 THANK YOU FOR THE INFO SIRSKI!
As someone he coached, I can confirm we worked of these three things
Thank you so much for this video. I've been wake boarding for a few years and it's always been a challenge. I would get exhausted after a few minutes and have to quit. I never had a chance to practice much of anything other than crossing the wake. Today I leaned against the line and it was easy. So easy I almost crashed and burned, till I got the hang of it. Thank you so much!
Great feedback and love to hear that this video helped you change your view of the sport! Thanks Tracy!
Don't know how I missed this when it came out but very eye opening! I have been aware of the proper riding position for a long time but definitely a squatter when cutting towards the wake for jumps. I can't wait till spring to get back out and try these positions! I have been stymied with the toe side jumps forever...finally got a few decent ones but after seeing this would almost guarantee I am leaning in towards the wake on the cut and not down the line. And, as you point out, my toeside cuts prior to heelside jumps are way better lol. I have heard a lot of these ideas and tips before but you really explain it well and the riding with the microphone is awesome so thanks for that! 👍
Thanks for the great feedback Tim! Have you seen the edit specifically on Toeside? th-cam.com/video/9oI-ka69zmo/w-d-xo.html
I'm a beginner and always watch this before I ride. Following these tips saves me a lot of pain!
Love hearing this great feedback Julia!
4:37 did that one time tripped over the wake and blew my eardrums 10 out of 10 would not do again😂😂
sick video, very well explained
Just got up on the board and rode for about 20 seconds for the first time today behind a jetski today. Hoping to learn some more before it gets too cold and then we’ll get a Wakeboat.
Amazing video
This is litterally my fourth time watching this video 🤣🤣🤣 It is so good bro! Keep it up dude!
Thank you for replying to all my comments bro. You help me so much! Wish you could coach me in person!
Thanks it help alot
basics are goldies!
Lev! Thanks for watching, and for your goldies comment...DM me on insta and I'll ship you a pair of Gold Sunnies 😎 (If you're in the U.S. 😉 )
@@Shaun.Murray - done!
Thanks
Great video.....
Thanks 237
Wow, this is the one video for anyone to see 👌
Thanks for watching! 👊🏼
This is a great video. I'd like to see more toe side jumps so I can get a better idea of what you're talking about on the toeside.
Noted
ty... u da man
This is a fantastic lesson on fundamentals. I wish I was exposed to it when I first started riding, it makes so much sense. You da man!
Glad it was helpful Hugh!
Hey Shaun. Been inspired to do bigger and better things from you. Would like to meet up sometime on a lake or a cable. See you soon
Great video, does this apply to cable park as well?
Nice
i just started this 3 weeks ago i just got a board , greetings from australia
RIGHT ON R2! Poke around my channel and you can find a bunch of different How To videos that should be helpful. Enjoy your ride! ✌️
Call it the Trifecta of riding
Do you have a video on your way of getting up on a wakeboard. I have never seen anyone other than you saying to put the board under your butt like you told your Daughter. Just curious of trying it that way to see if it’s easier. Love your videos man!! Thanks
Thanks for asking Eric! Here it is... th-cam.com/video/u2fEaoO8USc/w-d-xo.html
I wish you released this before winter
Awesome simple to follow instructional video i am going to give that a try. Shaun what are your top go to exersizes for strength for wake boarding? You mentioned core a lot in that video and i feel for me that is my next weak link. Standing tall and holding shape when the load from wake hits I tend to fold at my core. Cheers
That's where stacking up can help bc you rely on bone structure rather than muscle strength.
Ever think about doing some snowboarding videos? I bet you have some good wisdom there too! I'd watch.
Brian, I've done a couple snowboard videos on my channel but nothing regarding a How To. I've actually been on the snow longer than the water but haven't been teaching snowboarding very much. Maybe one day:)
@@Shaun.Murray where would you find snow?. Did you live somewhere else when younger? I live in Canada but not near the hills so I have a snowmobile pull me on my snowboard, lol. Feels more like a never ending wall sit but still fun.
@@lisapower9383 I grew up in California and headed to the mountains way before I hit the water. Still snowboard when I can and actually have towed behind a snowmobile, which was one of my most fun days in the snow ever!
For less experienced riders make note of his hand position. You'll probably be inclined to push your hands to the outside of the handle but getting comfortable with his hand position will help immensely with learning flippy, spinny stuff.
Also Hi Shaun, I still have an old VHS tape of you, Byerly, Gator and Ryan Siebring riding on my parents boat in Michigan when you were up here for the Bud Pro Tour. Iirc you had just met your hyperlite rep that day also and were travelling with your dad
Good insight and I wanna see this video!
Shaun! I've watched every one of these "going back to basics" videos. The hardest thing for me is "slowing it down" when I'm out riding.
I have to talk myself through the basics as I'm doing them.
"OK cut out....lean against the rope.....release...wait for the boat....load....body stacked...and hit the wake"
Almost every time I do this, I know I'm doing it correctly because I get get booted up and freak out and let go! hahaha Not "Murray" booted, but ya know it feels like I'm 20 feet high.
Sometimes I go through this and it feels like the rope is pulled out of my hands, what's happening there?
Thank you for all of these!
-Ryan
Best thing to do RV is think slow down and find a slower rhythm. Go more jazz than speed metal:)
I think I'll never forget this now...
LEAN AGAINST THE LINE!
I rode first time last weekend, was great fun, but i felt most comfortable holding with one hand, is that perhaps due to incorrect body position? great video, thanks!
Great to hear Michelle. Riding with one hand can help some people feel a little more balanced at first. Nothing wrong with that at all.
Unrelated to this video, i watched a video last year and you demonstrated easy way to gas boat at dock. You where using Vp racing fuel cells and pouring into a unit that pours into boat. Could you remid me of the name of the unit.
Landing wake to wake: Take off heel side, should you try to land heel or toe side? Vise versa?
If you're going heel side, stay in that direction. You shouldn't land w a cut/edge but keep your direction and keep your lean against the line the same as when you took off the wake.
I'm so jealous of how flat the water is there, considering how big a body of water that is
