i set my heels on the board while its floating, have the driver click the boat into forward(at the lowest speed, idle) wait for the slack to be all the way out then i use the water to hold the skate to my feet and just get up like its a wakeboard.

Off the dock i go with the Acid Drop start, a little difficult for a beginner, but its good when your better. When you are alread in the water i just put my board under my feet in the water then as the boat starts to pull i just let the pressure of the oncoming water keep the board to my heels and eventually you end up in a wakeboard style positoin which makes it easy to get up.

one hand to hold the board next to your feet, one hand on the handle, when the boat starts to pull the board will be pushed to your feet and you can hang onto the handle with both hands then just get up like a wakeboard.
