There is a great source of free videos designed to help absolute beginners get up without ever taking a fall. First you learn the correct standing position using posture and your hips further forward than your shoulders. Next you learn the seated position which makes standing up a breeze! It is called the three point position with your knees together and your butt close to the board. Have the driver just put the boat in gear while you practice letting the pressure of the water push your knees towards your chest and the wake board to your butt. These videos are designed to help the worse case scenario so you might find it even too easy once you watch them! Anyone can learn without falling if you follow these few simple steps.

Wakeboarding is an exciting and fun water sport. In this free instructional video an expert will explain what equipment is needed when wakeboarding.

You need to decide what your goals are. Also decide if you are looking at an in-board or out-board or an in-board/out-board. If you plan on surfing you need to get the inboard. Also, if you are mainly looking at wake boarding, you will need a tower.
Look at new boats at the end of the season. We "stole" ours at the end of last season. I bargained for hours, and ended up getting a "Blue Water Mirage" 20′ 7" with sweet tower, sound system, custom covers, all gear for 7 adults and new aluminum prop for under $30,000.00! I love it! We looked at used and found this and are soooooooooo happy! Enjoy your hunt!

Everything happened at the speed of light on Tuesday: just a few minutes after 11 a.m., the high-water mark had reached 1.35 metres, equivalent to a good half metre of water covering St. Mark’s Square.

Duncan Zuur’s team pulled a compact, 20 horsepower motor winch from its hiding place and placed it under the square’s arches. One team member, clad in rubber boots, pulled the winchs cable about 120 metres across the square and pressed one end firmly into the hand of Duncan Zuur, who had taken the opportunity to get into his wakeboarding gear. Four elegant turns later, the event was over prompting by a standing ovation from an astounding crowd of tourists.

And luckily for Duncan, the police didn’t even notice.
