Another of the many who wanna see the hot girl! You gotta spread the love because Riding in the UK leaves a little to be desired as far as wakeboarding hotties goes!
What the guy said about letting the boat do all the work is bang on, Girls actually tend to do better first time as they are not so intent on fighting with the boat. Just go with it, staying as tucked up as possible (knees on chest, heels on bum) then roll forward in same tucked up position until balancing on the balls of your feet.
Once there you can then stand up, the reason you shouldn't do it until over the top of your feet is because you will try and pull on the rope to get you up and this will just make you fall backward. Use your legs to stand and nothing else and turn the board as you stand or you'll be catching an eye-peeler - job done and hottie in the bag. Good luck!
If you're just starting out, there's a great alternative sports website now going called
www.ochosports.com. Its got everything from Surfing to Dodgeball and of course wakeboarding. Cool thing is there lots of info for first timers - check it out!
