The board should go under the water. As long as your toes are slightly higher than your heels the board will eventually plane out and get above water.

if u wana do it bad enuf u will b thinking bout it all day every day. watch as many wakeboard vids as possible n get hooked. go out in2 the water and try 2 put what you learnt in the vids 2 action. it is the greatest thing that has happened 2 me 4 ages. all i think about is goin boarding. jus feel confident in what u do and practise it, look in the other forums for tips and ask if u r unsure of anything.
