Great stuff, and in the first video, wake looks fantastic. If those were your first time going wireless for you and Sue, contact me through wake9.com and I will send the 2 of you free t-shirts. We love to see that.

Quick tip for you and Sue, your front foot is a bit too far outside. The center of the board should be just in front of your heel usually. It will help you stay in the pocket and not get tired from pushing on your toes. Give it a try.

Here is a great shot that shows good position especially when learning. Notice where the arch bars are under his feet. If you stand neutral and fade away from the wake, move your foot closer to the wake.

Ragboy: thx for info - most helpful. Address info on the way - we love those shirts.

We have 1000lb custom fatsac and 400 lb bag on the seat. For Sue we go 10.5mph and 5 on TAPS. Wave is real tall & she likes more push with shorter pocket is ok. With Scott we go 11-11.5 mph and TAPS on 4.5 for longer pocket but still good sized wave.
