The problem is when i watch this sort of thing it leaves those critical parts out.
Like when you start in deep water, boat pulls tension on the line, you bring the board under the water and brings your heels of your feet to you butt. Then you ride up and out of the water.
That so doesn't work for me. I try and try that and all i do is get pulled over my board or drag out and lose my handle.
I ended up turning the board as the boat pulls me up and i come up out of the water almost in regular position.
The video wants you to come up in a side slide basically. This would be great if i can learn this as it will help me get to a switch position as well.
Ridding switch is a big thing i want to learn this summer too.
The side to side works. you just want to stay leaned back. If you watched me last time we went out I get up side to side but all most as soon as I am up I almost always go straight into a heelside type movement to keep your self from toppeling over. Or as soon as you are up in that side to side position, pull on the rope with your arms but stay leaned back and turn your board. This will also prevent you from toppeling over.
