How to Stand Up in the Water When Wakeboarding

Hello! I’m Francisco Escudero here in Miami, Florida. If you want to learn more about wakeboarding, go to skybanditz.com. This is a traditional wakeboard style board. It differs from snowboarding. Obviously, because it’s done in the water. We have like 4 different fins here, and it can go both directions. In surfing, you use a one directional board and it has define tip. This is a fairly flexible board, similar to a snowboard. Next thing we’re going to do is we’re going to grab our handle. First, we’re we’re going to tie it to a tree. We’re going to first just start to relax your hands, grab the bar here, and lean back just a little bit just to get your stance. After we do this, we’re going to go and corporate the board into wakeboard riding.
