I'm new at this whole wakeboarding thing and I'm not sure how fast I'm supposed to be pulled. Last time I wakeboarded I settled in at about 23mph, is that about right? I'm getting close to doing wake-to-wakes but I'm not sure if the speed has a big effect on how much air I can get or not.

Speed does have a big effect, and anywhere between 20-24ish is good, give or take a couple depending on your skill level/boat. 23 sounds like a pretty good speed if your close to w2w and things like that. Shorten the rope for easier wake to wakes. Good luck!
