Hey everyone, I was wondering what are some of the better tutorial dvds out for beginners? I got the rideing and balancing, and jumping wake to wake (barely got that down), but id like the progress to some tricks.
At one point, i thought to my self, maby i could become pro one day, my step cousins in outlaw, and after seeing him, I think that even shooting for outlaw is way too high a goal for me. I have a slight case of sculliosis (some kinda spinal disorder), which may hinder me in tricks and such, but i guess my best is all i can give it |

Comp riding is overated IMO. Don't think about being pro, just go out ride progress and if your good enough someone will sponsor you, if not who cares your having fun right? Wakeboarding is definantly all about enjoyment, not about going pro. Just go out and ride, have fun.
TWC just made a video called "The Book" it's huge and the guys down at TWC know how to teach so im shure its good.
Check out the trick tips on this site too, and ride with your step cousin whenever you can, its allways good to have someone better than you around to help push you to try new stuff. _________________ wakeboards

Joyride,
WakeTrix from Sidewayz is pretty good and covers everything from gettting up to big inverts. The format gives you the fundamentals of the move, the mechanics of it and then how to progress the trick. I would recommend it. _________________ "I like animals, they taste good." |

| I really like higher education and Detention. They both teach you step by step on how to do skills such all the way from getting up up to inverts. Personally I like Higher Ed best though. |
