How to Stand up on a Wake Surfboard
Standing up on a wakesurf board is very similar to standing up on a wakeboard. The main difference is the size of the board. Follow these step-by-step instructions for getting up on a wakesurf board, which include helpful rope and boat tips.

Once you are standing, adjust your weight on the board to move forward or backward. Apply more weight on your front foot to move forward and apply more weight on your back foot to move backward.

Putting more weight toward the inside edge of the board (the board closest to the wave) will allow you to cut into the wave. Click here watch a wake surfing video.

Get comfortable riding in the “pocket” without any tension before you throw the rope. Rather than throwing the rope toward the boat where you might hit someone upside the head, throw the rope out to the side, and people in the boat can pull the rope back in. More Wake Surfing Safety Tips
