Water Sports : How to Wakeboard

[iampeeay01]

thanks for sharing this video... it helped me a lot since i am learning how to wakeboard... :)

[SofaK1ngWeTaDid]

how much weed do you smoke in a day?...

[mitchparise23]

@expertvillage if you have the fins do you have to turn the board so you dont fall forward, instead of keeping it sideways?

[makebank93]

@makebank93: yea i friggin love hotsteeze

[warrenpadgette]

hey, thanks for your videos! without you i couldnt get up and out of the water! thanks dude! watched your video, and used your tips while out on the water and was so stoked to get up and right out of the water!

[LaoZen99]

excelente video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MegaJonWilliams]

What a great video - really helps beginners such as me to understand how to move left and right :) Gonna try this out tomorrow, as today I couldn't get onto my toe edge at all!

[MegaJonWilliams]

@ granolagirl8819 - get up by bending you knees as close to your chest as possible. Ensure you grab the handle with your elbows outside of your knees. As the boat pulls away, keep a firm grip but DO NOT TRY TO STAND UP. The boat will pull you up. You'll stand up naturally. IMPORTANT TIP - keep your toes up as much as possible, and lean back, so your board doesn't dig underwater.

[kemper1962]

@MegaJonWilliams dude he wrote that comment a year ago he's gotten up by now

[Hockeyfreak1597]

Do I need hair like that to wakeboard ??

[makebank93]

@terminater3: yea hotsteeze is awesome i use it all the time to find new tricks

[jTj631]

Im pretty good at wakeboarding and I highly agree with this video I wish when I learned how to wakeboard I had access to youtube dang

[MajorClutch]

Without fins the board feels looser and turns more on deman

[xxepicxxairsoftxx]

can someone tell me what are the advantages and disadvantages of removing the two center fins and just using the molded fins?

[TobyWanSHinobi]

Check out notorious ninjas wakeboarding video

[sk8erdude38]

Quit Flexin' Bro

[brad976431]

this is how you edge, hence the word edging

[MapIeIeaf]

That was really helpful! In just about a week, I will be going to a lake were I will wakeboard (which I have never done before!), so thanks for the help and lessons!! :o)

[LapTopVideos]

Looks like the guy off that 70's show

[jayelise]

Watched this before going out on the water for first time, along with your 'how to get up on a wakeboard' video, helped me ALOT! Was up 2nd time! Just gotta work on toe-side edging... Cheers man!!

[vincesabin]

[supersk8ter10101]

thanks alot u really helped

[chris22my]

This helped me so much because i went for the first time the other day and i got up and was riding good my third try. I think snowboarding really helps. Its kind of like riding pow

[punkrockemopixi1989]

my boyfriend desparetely wants to take me out in his boat to go wake boarding...i'm so terrified that i'm going to embarase myself...he's done everything...surfing,wakeboard­ing,golfing,skiing,snow boarding...and i barely know how to play volleyball...any suggestions??i really dont want to make a fool of myself infront of him>.<

[Ilovemytoast]

@punkrockemopixi1989 Hi im 13 and I just went wakeboarding for the first time today, I almost got up. It's ok if you don't get up on your first time out. I didn't but if I practice I should be able to get up sooner or later. Theres no same of falling, you need to crash to learn. And so what if people laugh at you if you take a big spill! It's no big deal because they have done the same thing. Everyone starts from the same level so its fine! Once you get the hang of it you can laugh at them =] gl

[RollLikeAbox]

@Ilovemytoast yeah it took me 9 tries(two days) to get up. took one of my friends 24 tries :P just keep at it

[wagonwheelsadventure]

@punkrockemopixi1989 don't worry about embarrassing yourself! water sports are always just a process of learning your balance. He'll have lots of good advice and such for you, there's really no way you can look stupid. good luck! it's tons of fun!

[HunzikerLance]

it helped a lot

[EtnicsMediaSB]

expert village sucks dick

[mraccio100]

if you can snowboard really well, should wakeboarding come easy

[minuteaa]

Where are the edges again?

[Hadjiwithagun]

@minuteaa the edge of the board...

[ajr2112]

@minuteaa hahaha

[ESH1996]

can you make a video on how to position your bindings?

[camillibums]

Good video. Wished you would of included video footage on water using toe edge.

[alextacular]

i have ben doing this for like 4 years and i laugh so hard at this joke

[logan13244]

no shit

[wakeangel7]

hahahha i just laugh at this video cuz ive been wakeboarding since i was 7 hahhahah

[GThazard]

dude wtf why r the words in the middle of the Fn screen

[98asm]

cool, i'm going with my friend for the first time with my friend in a few minutes!

[MeLightk]

the subtitles arn't synchronized with the sound.

[micbergsma]

good job with captions, someone like me (hearing impaired) like to understand what you are saying

[yakamuci]

@micbergsma im happy for you, it helps me too

[i502Piecemaker7]

@micbergsma Hey dude, yes, subtitles can help alot. I am also hearing impared but i can understand what they are saying most of the time without the captions on but I have to focus more. With the captions i can just understand what they are saying without focusing on the sound.

[Monkykiller103]

snowboarding on water......

[zgrabow4]

can i have your job?

[turtlebaby021]

His other video of getting up helped me understand much better. Also, it helps when it shows on the water.

[granolagirl8819]

how do you GET UP!?

[krank87]

@granolagirl8819

1. Bend your knees.

2. Keep your knees between your straight arms.

3. Lean back, with the board just beneath the surface

4. Once the boat accelerate, don't try to stand up. Just try to stop the boat with your board and the boat will do the rest....

[50andURnotLOLOLOL]

@granolagirl8819 have balence

[MegaPascal31]

@granolagirl8819 But what complicates things is trying to get up with a low HP boat.

[BovarianRouge]

@granolagirl8819 When the boat starts moving forward the rope you hold will pull you upright from your sitting position and then you start riding

[wakeangel7]

@granolagirl8819 well what i do, when i'm in the water, i keep myself in like a ball with the rope on top of the middle of my board, then i wait about 3 seconds after the boat starts to go, after about those 3 seconds, i start to stand up and straighten myself out :)

[dangermouse1983]

@granolagirl8819 It took me about a week to get up from behind a jet ski. Just practice, ensure that your knees are up towards your chest and that you've pulled the rope towards you before the boat starts. When the boat does start, try to stand up as well as pulling your right foot down so that your left foot is in front. Hopefully that's enough detail, but practice practice practice!

[mrtumnus88]

@granolagirl8819 you could look at the how to get up on a wakeboard video

[evancamp96]

@granolagirl8819 let the boat pull you up. dont stand up until youre straight up. tell the driver to hit it full throttle. then when you get up to slow it down. it just takes practice :)

[ZlaxdaWg44]

@granolagirl8819 theres a video 4 that. i actually had a harder time finding the video 4 this than the get up video. oh and thanx guys that make these! they r very helpful.

[thesongmakers]

do please pull ur pants up its not ment to be that low.

anyway u did a good job showing how ur soppost to ride the board thanks

from afaica

[jaxnville33]

great video mate! i dig the sign at the end:)hahaha classic

[Angiolino81]

Thank you from italy!

[Darkcasanova]

[jeroenproductions]

fag

[brandon0135]

if anybody needs some more help with this or jumps or flips just send me a message and ill help you out.

[ptjanis11]

if i know how to skateboard and snowboard will wakeboarding be easy

[laxdude142]

its similar but its different because your being pulled your not moving by momentum of a mountain or wheels on a skateboard

[ptjanis11]

ok but i also know how to waterski tube kneeboard and stuff. i've always been wanting to do this so i hope i do well

[NuclearPowerSheep]

really?

[ExadusX]

No.

[wakeboarder124]

no. people relate them, but there are huge differences between each of those things. it's sort of the same feeling as snowboarding, but the balance is WAY different. Snowboarding will give you alot of bad wakeboarding habits aswell. Just make sure that you learn how to wakeboard properly, so that all your habits are good ones, and it will make it way easier when you get good.

[R0bbieDouglas]

as he explains it its pretty much the same concept to turn.

[ShowShowStoppers]

i got up my first time..but it took my brother like half an hour.you just have 2 keep trying thats what he did and he finally got it! some people just give up

[MrRampage655]

try shortening the rope if u cant get up

[bskandelicious]

this is great but..i still cant get up!!!! anyvids on learning how to stand up

[Rykershot101]

language children!

[hiimnice10]

Exactly

[fenderg33k]

I wonder how many lines of coke this guy can do? lol

[weakwork]

i don't got one but my cousins got one i commented at 0:22

and it's got fins on both sides is that good?

[matchago]

pongas videos en español pa poder apernder

[bored693]

this is just a tip for beginners, once you finally get up, if you have both hands on the handle your body is going to create the tendency to pull the backside of your body forward, meaning a face plant, so once you get up use the same hand as the foot that have have facing forward on the board and let go with the other hand and it should help keepin you from fallin on your face lol.

[cecipolloloko]

he kinda reminds me of that hippy guy in that 70 show...

good lesson video

[BurnenACE4theENIGMA]

dude i was thinking that and i scrolled down to ur comment haha

[zthermo]

^^^ This guy is 41 years old. LOL! Great response. You talk like that around here you get wakeboarded permanently under water. Someone report this homo.

[courtneyxcollins]

what! as if , 41 ?! noo way ! :P

it looks like hes in his thirties , tops .

[Rykershot101]

someone has jealousy.. aha :P

[hiimnice10]

Why is your shirt off...nobody wants to see that faggot.

[zthermo]

Sounds like someone has a crush on Ross. STFU dude who cares, it's an instructional vid. God, private message him if you want a private lesson already.

[globeman101]

is it eaiser with a tower plez reply

[modenasrawsome77]

yes it because with the tower pulls the wake boarder a little more up and easier to stay up,

without the tower the boat just pulls the boarder directly behind it and its slightly harder to keep balance and to stay up and harder to do tricks and things

[baileythedudeman57]

@modenasrawsome77 what??? explain more please

[MrOlliepop]

thanks bra

[BabaBomeistervideos]

is wakebaording kinda like snowboarding

in terms of posture and turning

and the only difference is that in snowbaording ur not holding on to anyting??? plz help me :S

[monkeys195]

ive been wake boarding for a bout 5-6 years its pretty much the same thing but getting up is the only hard part for beginers then when you get up you just lean left or right

[megaman8100]

here is your edging... hence the word edging, so funny

[fipzee]

Josh Koschek?

[TheStiversChild]

That's an awesome video. Thanks

[musolff92]

thanks man, that was helpful

[Rushmonkeys]

[GSlongboarding]

Where can i get a good but low price Wakeboard? Please reply.

[tylersides]

craigslist

[asmb100]

i want a wake board should i get a junior board if i dont know how much i weigh(i know i weigh more than 100 pounds and junior wakeboards can hold 90- 120 pounds)

[tylersides]

no get an adult size cause youll probably grow and plus you can still use it when you weigh more

[rmazurel]

Weigh urself?

[asmb100]

i did

[dmorph1]

thanks for the tips u really helped my toe side turns

[Gearsofwar1995]

No if you are a beginner you start learning with both on if you get more expience and you start feeling like you want to jump wake to wake of doing 180's you can get them off its just about in the beginning its new and stuff and youre not like fully stable when thats over and youre certain that you can do it with out you can take them off

[Trip772]

so as a beginner its easier to learn with both fins on but as i get better i could take them off???

[rmazurel]

Its more style-wise. Some people like it loose, some dont.

[zoommzoommm]

i hav a question...im new to wakeboarding and i just bought a wakeboard and it cam with two fins...do i put both fins on or what?

[irish375]

yes it depends on what kind of boarder you are beginner intermediate or expert and if you want to jump or iff you just want to mess around in the wake

[Trip772]

you put both fins on but make sure theyre the right way when you do

[lekstuntkite]

well thanks

[natebrushie]

Nice very helpful =)
