Hey everybody,
So Im new to wakeboarding this year. I bought one this year and just started going at it. I have filmed a little set for your enjoyment, but what I really need is some pointers and just some general help.

First, am I too far back from the boat or too close?
Am I driving at an acceptable speed?
And lastly, do any of yall have any experience with Sit skiing....I know, yall might be like "what is that?" I am paralyzed and have a cage bolted to the wakeboard. _________________ W. Speed!

dude you rock!!! that is some kind of impressive, as far as speed how fast were you going? I think you probably want to trim the motor up a little more and get the wake as good as you can get it running about 18-20mph. Then let your rope out to the length where the wake looks the best and has no white wash. Other than that just keep riding. _________________ Lithic, LLC, my biz

well, I really have no idea how fast Im going, the speedo broke in the boat but im figuring we were going faster than 18-20. Im trying to get the funds up for a perfect pass system, but we will see how that goes. _________________ W. Speed!

You could probably find a decent GPS for less than the cost/labor of installing a perfect pass and set it up on the dash for speed information. |
