http://test.waketrix.com/

There you'll find videos on quite a few basic wakeboarding elements. A few of the exercises could be very useful as well.

But once it gets into the more experienced level stuff all they say is "it just feels natural" which really pisses me off.

Learnwake.com is deffinatly the superior site, hands down. But waketrix could help some new people for sure. And it's free.

I know what you're talking about. They don't really go into detail with anything more than a wake jump. Even that is very vague.

"I'm sure it feels natural to you guys, deep water starts feel pretty natural to me, but just the number of threads you see on the subject attest to the fact that it's not."

Yeah, the stuff I've seen from learnwake is really informative and they go through steps of each trick. It's a far superior method. But you get what you pay for, right? Waketrix might be able to help some of the very beginners though. But as you said after the wake jump they get VERY vague.

I like watching the Waketrix stuff, even though they start lacking information you can still watch the riders and get a solid idea of how your body should look when you're riding.
