SWEEETTNESS! Hahaha, Yesterday was so awesome. It was just about the best day ive had ever. (It was also like my 5th time ever too.) The water was a little cold but very smooth and easy to work with.

I was able to pull off a little more then I expected. I conqouered turning, both heelside and toeside in regular stance. I could go decently far outside the wake, and come back in without any problem.

I know this comes up alot, but my question for you is what should i work on next?

I need to know what i should try and do next. I can turn now, what comes next? Switch or start jumping? I want your opinion.

As for this summer, im a phyced about wakeboarder. This will be my first real season. (before i had gone with neighbors.)

Thanks.

Start working on your progressive edge, both heelside and toe. Learn it right the first time so you don't start making bad habits. getting comfortable with riding switch would be a good idea too. I find it's pretty fun just to go out and slide or ollie back and forth from switch to regular. Sounds like you're having a great time, so keep at it.

check the trick tips...basically as u cut towards the wake ur edge should get harder n harder and at max when u hit the wake...and stand tall off the top of the wake to get your pop.
