What's the best way to learn new tricks and practice jumping. I heard a trampoline works but I don't have one. Is there another way to learn without killing myself on the water haha thanks!! _________________ I <3 wakeboarding |

Nothing really compares to getting on the water and trying things. Even trampolines have their limit of usefulness.
The best thing to do is to get in shape, work on your cardio, stretch, and work on your strength. That way, when you do get on the water, you can ride for longer without getting tired and are less likely to hurt yourself. |

Go to a wake-school or camp. Watch instructional videos. And practice any other boardsport. _________________ FlyZone Wakeboarding Costa Rica |

what i do is excercise it will help you jump back in to it full on, instead of building up endurance and strength from cold, each time, also study videos. or try it slow then speed up ease landing, when learning spins take off your fins or go real slow and practise spining behind the boat passing the handle, you can even hit the wake and flip it wont hurt at all then speedr up put the fins back on and try some wake to wake stuff or inside the wake out stuff, hope that helps you out |

most of the instructional videos - OK learn wake - these guys take you step by step and lead you up to a trick - so its a progressive progress and I've learned that it works pretty well and pain free... |
