my buddy who is an awesome skateboarder tried it for the first time last summer and landed a kickflip after a couple attempts, but he had wakeboarded before, not sure if you have.

boardbum515, There are a lot of similarities, but you will have to get comfortable on the board first.

I would recommend learning carves and all the lipslides and getting really comfortable riding before you go out and start trying tricks.

have fun,



`nick
