I am new to wakeboarding and at the present time only have a jetski to be pulled behind...will this make it more difficult for me to learn on?
Thanks in advance!

I don't see why it would. Don't expect a lot of wake though.

if the jetski doesnt pull well it'll be a bit harder just cuz it wont pull you out of the water that fast but other than that not really

With a PWC you should master your beginner stages.

1. Riding switch
2. Edging Toeside and heelside
3. Handle passes
4. Surface 180's & Surface 360's
5. Ollies & Ollie 180
These tricks are the foundation for you to progress your riding.
Once you have these down you should be on your way to bigger tricks that will require bigger wakes. Check you messages

A Jet Ski can go in really shallow water so u don't have to do deep water starts. U won't get a huge wake tho. Confused

B_Schall43, TomOgorman, if she wants to wakeboard, she'll wakeboard. People wakeboard behind PWC's. I'm one of them. sonique, you'll be able to get up fine behind it. And also you can learn quite a bit of stuff. You can learn butterslides and such, w2w HS and TS switch and regular, all 15 different kinds of 180's, and even 360's and such. As for the wake... pretty much all you can do is make sure u have 2 people on it not just 1. Good luck and have fun.

You can do it and it will be fun. Thats all i can say. Weve had some great fun behind a PWC. Have fun and work with what you got.
