Hey everyone. Believe it or not, today was actually my first day ever wakeboarding and i got up on my 1st try and by my second try i was already going outside the wake and just riding across the wake. I want to try a easy trick, but i dont know any easy starter tricks. Which one do you think i should try?

Also, to Switch my standing, While riding, Would it be easier if i take off the fins(I have 1 front and 1 rear fin)

try taking off the fins, it'll help you learn to edge better...not just carve.
if you feel comfortasble riding finless, you can work surface spins...180s,360s,etc/
then work 1 wake jumps... work on everythin heelside and toeside...and switch

above all...just go out and have fun riding Very Happy
