Hey, its been awhile since I got a new wakeboard and I was wondering, is there much getting used to or breaking in? I plan on buying one over the winter and I was just wondering.

riding it usually helps, but no.

it depends how different it is from your old board. some boards might not suit you and youll never really get used to them.

wakeATL, the rocker type and edge shape will be the deciding factors. For the edges, you'll either feel like your going way too slow, warp speed, or the same as you're used to. For the rocker, if you're not used to three stage, I suggest learning fast. You will get kicked. If you are unfamiliar with continuous, it will feel mellow and soul-surfing-ish.
