Can i do this if i dont hav a pole

[LearnWake]

@WakeboardingPro17 Sure. It'll be harder though, because the rope will be pulling you down, instead of straight forward while you are in the air.

Awesome video man! I love just pulling tantrums all the time now whenever I get a chance to ride. My problem is I don't really get enough height, am I coming in too quickly? flipping too early?

[LearnWake]

@OwenKnowsTech Hard to tell without seeing it :)

The most common mistake is that people don't extend (jump) off of the very top of the wake. If you do this, it'll usually give you a good pop, assuming you've built enough speed into the wake. If you wait too long to pop, you'll get hung up in the air and not be able to complete your flip (I'm assuming you've had this happen to you a few times, since it happens to every rider at some point).

I just got a wakeboard today and we are going tomorrow any easy tricks to go off of first?

[LearnWake]

@TheRapcity87 Learn to edge very comfortable on both side of the wake, crossing the wakes in both directions. Once you can do that, start trying to get little pops off of the wake (on both sides). Then build into bigger airs trying to clear the wakes.

@tandaman12355 ive thrown about 50 tantrums, and ive never hurt myself

they really dont hurt, but if your scared just get the boat to slow down for the first one

[WeAreWakeboarders]

@manusapag depends on your skill, if your just starting use a 50-60 foot rope, once you improve you can go up to like a 65-70 foot rope. Then once you get really good move up to like a 70-80 foot rope, but as your rope length increases your boat speed will have to increase too

[manusapag]

what should be the length of the rope?

3rd time wakeboarding i tried this.. havent been since

[DumpsterChicken14]

@LearnWake yea forsure, i guess its way easier than trying to throw it

[makebank93]

@brianator145: yea i friggin love hotsteeze

[LearnWake]

@GCalem Varies from person to person, but I would attempt it at normal boat speed.  19-20MPH at the slowest.

@walkthemilkyway Fast enough to where the wake isn't really foamy.
