WakeBoard Tricks
How to Side Slide on a Wakeboard:
Side sliding is one of the simplest fundamentals of wakeboarding. Learn it, master it for control and move on.
1. Do side slides either inside or outside the wake.
2. Twist your hips in either direction (depending on your regular or goofy footed stance) to face the boat. This will help turn the board.
3. Turn the board 90 degrees sideways so that it's perpendicular to the boat's direction of travel.
4. Slide.
5. Keep the board flat on the water, with your weight slightly more on the side of the board that's farther from the boat.
6. Turn your hips back to point your board's nose at the boat.
7. Smile and do it again.
