    Default Wakesurfing

    Since we dont have a wakesurfing section.

    How do you wakesurf?

    I am a footer, the faster the better, I always say.

    I don't get it!

    I have an 2007 outback with the factory ballast, and we tried all kind of different speeds last year, even tried it with a rope and it just did not work.

    I must assume I was doing something wrong.

    Tips?
    It is better barefoot!

    Ed can tune you in probally better than most. what I've heard him say and has worked for us, load about 600# sac across back of boat, another 600# up the side by engine compartment, (you will be lisping heavy to one side) get boarder up and start around 9-12mph until a good pocket forms, drop in and enjoy. It takes some tweaking, after you get it figured out you can make some l-o-n-g rides.

    Shoot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Learn something new every day. I had no idea you corner-load the boat but it makes perfect sense, i.e., you never cross the wake . . . Duh! I'll have some answers for my surfer little brother who grew up at Sebastian Inlet and got me started wakeboarding but wants to try some wake surfing. Thanks!

    Ok, so I have been looking around.

    I have a wakeskate not a surfboard.

    what is the difference?
