Depends on who you ask.
The best way to get good at wakeskating is to wakeskate a lot. But skateboarding sure doesn't hurt anything. I think it helps with confidence and visualizing stuff, as well as style. Plus it gives you something to do if your lake is 40 degrees half the year. _________________

i have almost got kickflips on the wakeskates and i have only been doing it for like 2 months, and dont even have a board. ALL skateboarding. although because it has been that long my handle passing skills are horrible. |
