I'm not too sure on how to take your question. Seems sarcastic, but since you cant show emotion over the computer. No. Just having fun and learning new tricks. I wouldnt complain if that were to ever happen .

Blessed, you'll be fine with that setup. If you're still struggling after a couple of sets this year, I would STRONGLY recommend "The Book" DVD series. I have Volume 2 "Building a Foundation" and it made me 10X better of a rider within a few weeks. Some of the stuff on there made so much sense, but I just hadn't thought of it on my own.

Eyekahn may be getting a little bit ahead of you, though. As a kid who grew up on skis, a slalom, snowskiing, and racing BMX bikes, everything I learned was to use your knees to take the shock of bumps and waves. With wake, you have to unlearn that if you ever want to jump wake 2 wake. The hardest parts for me in learning to jump w2w were:

1. Learning to push off the wake/straighten my knees when hitting the wake; and
2. Having the courage to charge into the wake with speed.

I think #2 was hard because, as we get older, we think more about the consequences and pain associated with a fall. At age 15, you don't give a F---. I was almost 30 when I learned to wakeboard, and had already been through some sports injuries. Once you really get good pop off the wake a few times and clear the wake it is nothing. But the first few times can be intimidating.

But the DVD. It is worth it.

No I really was asking. My GF brother rode for CWB and Nautique before he snapped a board and blew out his ACL. Now he kinda scouts for some of his old bosses at CWB. We got him on a board for the first time in 2 years last weekend.

Awesome. Yea, most pro's have had tons of knee injuries. I could send him some pics and stuff if he still scouts for sponsorships or just flow from companies. That would just be ace. What is his name?
Blessed, Youtube is your friend. I learned all my inverts from instructional videos on there. Spins were cake for me since i snowboard and skate.

Do you have a demo video? His Name is Justin De Vos. This is from last weekend, first ride in 2 years. Look at the save at the start of the video. We started rolling video right after he got the boat set-up about 2 minutes into a 10 minute run. Water was COLD!
