hey everyone,
so I have a 2005 sea doo wake PWC, and I've been wakeboarding now for about 4 weeks. i can clear the wake and everything, but I was wondering if any of you have suggestions for how i could get bigger air, as in height off the water. keep in mind it is a sea doo, so the wake is pretty pathetic compared to a boat. I would really appreciate any suggestions, thanks! (see video)

It probably depends alot on your board. and the fact that you don;t have a ski tower on a boat.
i;m just guessing, idk i;m a newbie what do i know

Looks to me that you're absorbing the wake with your knees. Stand tall at the wake and you should get more pop. _________________

Try to carve out farther and then work on your progressive edge...also, whatwkebrd3, said is right too. Looks like you need to work on your toeside wake jumps too. And you can work on lots of tricks with the height you're getting now.  _________________ Mellow out........man |
