Ok...
I got up my 4th pull the first time i ever went out to the lake...I can now do W2W jumps, indy and method grabs, and butterslides. And i am now just getting on 180's off the wake...This is my first season wakeboarding, and i have been out about 6 times. So as far as what i can do, is this about where i am supposed to be? I know some people learn faster and slower than others, just wondering...

There is no set timeline for tricks. Some people will progress faster then others and vica versa. But, I would say your progession is pretty good. But method... after 6 pulls?

Yeah, i don't kno what i was thinking, maybe it was the fact is was like 2 somethin in the morn and i was dead tired when i made this thread. I didn't mean methods, i meant Melancholy's, this is where your lead hand grabs the heel edge of the board right?....Anyway yeah....
It kinda sux, i don't have my own boat or board  , i just bum rides with my friends and use their stuff  .....Thats why i've only been to the lake 6 times....

That's pretty fast progression. If you want to keep progressing take it with baby steps. Don't slow down just don't try something out of your league. I did this a while back and got hurt pretty bad. It slowed me down for a long time.

Ahh yes, melan sounds more like it. Method is quite an advanced grab.
