a boat with a tower pulls you more up like when getting up. and a tower provides a higher pivot point when preforming jumps and whatnot. where as a tow boat with a low pivot point doesn't pull you up when starting and it pulls you down when jumping boats with a low pivot are good for things like tubing and slalum skiing

[pianoPLAYER1993]

Basically the diffrence is that...when your being pulled by a boat without the tower the rope is angled down so when you jump your being "pulled" down so it is harder to get more air..

when your being pulled with the tower the rope is angled up so your being "pulled" upward so it makes getting air easier. the only reason i know this is because when i first started i started without a tower....so i would suggest using a tower if it is possible..not to say that it is imposible without it.

what's the name of that board.i know it's CWB but forget the model..

@marfasan18 deff make sure you work your back out like crazy, mainly your lower back. anywhere between18-23ish is a good speed. i have my back foot not straight but just the first angle setting. and my lead foot maybe one or 2 settings more angled if that makes sense. it's really just about being comfortable. if youre comfortable then that's one less thing on your mind when you're learning. also, huge fins arent always great. i find that anything over 1 inch makes it easier to catch and fall.

What exercises are good for preparing my body for wakeboarding?

And what is the speed that boat has to have?

Also please tell me there are 3 positions between feet. What position should I use for beginners?

And what angle is the correct for beginner?

Thanks a lot if you reply

Best regards

@kmoo2 ok thnks for the advice

[kmoo2]

@MrOscar94 hmm. maybe its just cuz ur not used to wakeboarding,, so ur more tense, maybe just try to relax more

[MrOscar94]

@kmoo2 i don't think so cuz My brother and My cousin used it to but there hip doesn't hurt.

[kmoo2]

@MrOscar94 mayb its the angle of the bindings, try changing it, such as so they are at a 90degree angle to the board, or your front foot binding so its closer (but not) parallel to the board.
