i can get up just fine, found a sweet ass cove with stumps to skate in. those stumps need to move out the way before they hurt someone, stupid mother fruckers.

one problem i had trying to go switch was..

well first i use one fin in the back and that's all. everytime i tried switch i felt like the fin was catching and i would turn it to much trying to fight the fin and i would push to hard and fall backwards of faceplant. i'm thinking of trying finless tomorrow. i'm going to have a hard time learning switch because my left side acts like a retard at chucky cheese.. but i will learn it.

oh yeah, that some beach of a board jumped up and attacked my ankle cutting me open. after falling me and it had a nice little talk and he promised not to pull a stunt like that again, smooth riding for a good 2 hours.

out like your haircut

Come here. I live on a lake, but no one rides. That goes for everyone. If you can drive a boat, you can have a free summer on a lake.

Now let's all post pictures of our griptape burns. Rolling Eyes

I'm not good at riding switch on a wakeskate or a wakeboard AT ALL! It's the rope and the pull of the boat that goofs me up. I can skate and snowboard just fine switch... I need to work on the water crap. But swtich is cool and it's a good idea to learn it right away.

And keep the one liners coming. YOu're pretty much the funniest person on the site right now...

so is it eassier to go switch without fins?

also my hands and right side get very tired. what exercises can i do to prevent this?

Excercise #1

first step--find a good looking picture of your mom
second step--get up, and go lock your door (so your mom doesn't see)
third step--pull those draws down!
fourth step--have a little fun

do that once or twice a day and i would say if your a beginner, try learning switch right away!

hope this helps Laughing

electricsnow, im the same way. i am real good at switch on my snowboard. but with wakeskating/boarding, the pull of the boat messes me up so bad. its weird too...i started wakeboarding long before i started snowboarding, and i feel way more comfortable switch on the snow.

Jonesie, classic.

urinal mint, i dono of any exersizes, just the more you ride the stronger you will get, the more comforatable u will get, more balance, and stuff, everything will work out.

what about moving your feet around? i found the board almost slipping out from underneath me when i tried to move my feet to different positions.
