Whats up everybody! I grew up skiing and have been snowboarding for 6 years. Just started wakeboarding and now I see what I've been missing all this time.

How's it going? I actually have a serious question for you/any other snowboarders around here.
Honestly, how similar is wakeboarding to snowboarding?

i would say its kinda like pow boarding, the controlling is all the same. the only diffrent feel for me is where the weight is and the fact your being pulled

Hey Alio, is that Epsom, England? Yeah I would say that it is similar to powder riding (weight back), but the fact that you are being towed means that your turns are much less forgiving (rope slack can snap ya). Anyways, this is relatively new for me, but now I can board almost year round!!!
