hey this summer i went wakeboarding with an Adventure company in NC, they taught me the basics like how to get up and move across the water. So about 2 months ago my dad bought us a boat and overall we have been on the water for about 17 hours or so and since i have had to share the time with my brother i probably have been on a wakeboard for about 6 hours.... so far i can easily and comfortably move across the water, i can get a great edge, and i can almost jump wake to wake just not high yet, i can do 180 and switch 180.... am i doing good so far???

I asked this question.

answer: As long as you progress and have fun doing it, you're doing fine. some people are natural, just try your hardest and have a good time w/ the people that enjoy doing it w/ you.

You're doing great, just really start getting more comfortable riding switch, it'll become more and more important as you progress.

Yea your doing well...really practice the basics and good technique. They may seem annoying or pointless but they help you SO much in the long run. Dont skimp out on TS or switch. I did and I regret it. Its much harder to fix later

You're doing fine. Don't worry about not progressing, because for me it seemed like i was progressing soooooo slow. But then after I learned a 360, everything just started flowing.

Stewie, ugh. Lucky. I landed a HS 3 in june and still dont have it consistent and I ride at least weekly. (Its off season now) I landed 1 trick after that but lost it again (TS 3) but nothing else seems to be coming to me.
