I just started wakeboarding and just got me a board (Ronix One )and also picked one up for for my wife (Hyperlite motive with DS3 bindings) and am curios if adding a pole will help her with getting up? I have been skiing for 30+ years (Dont ask how old its not polite) Very Happy anyway I went out to a local ski lake we have called trophy lakes to get a little coaching since it was my first time on a board and all seemed to go well popped right up and was able to do a little practice carving, toe and heel side both sides of the wake and got a few good tips on body position but I am worried about her getting up behind our boat, a 18" center console. I tried to teach her to ski several times with no luck, even on two skis, but am going to bring her to trophy lakes and let them take a shot at getting her up on a wakeboard but they have mastercraft boats with towers and it seems like they will be simpler then my setup, do you think adding a 6-7Ft pole/pylon would help her with my set up or is it a waist of $$$ THanks
