I'm going to the lake with my family this sunday-wednesday. I recently found out that another girl I know will be there at the same time with her family and she is bringing friends(one of which is my girlfriend). None of them can get up, one says that she's gotten up before but can't anymore. I was really excited to go out with them and teach them but I recently found out that they didnt really want to wakeboard with me because they thought they would embarass themselves. Is there anything I can do to make them feel more comfortable? I'm kind of hoping that there going to realize that it's nothing to worry about and they can relax and have fun.
I wasnt sure if I should go first or not. Maybe I can have my little sisters go. I'm sure theyll want someone to go first so they can see how its done but don't want to have to follow someone "good". Every time i try to be encouraging I feel like i might be making it worse because I know they'll do fine but theyre pretty convinced that they wont and will look stupid.
