Hi, my name is Jonty Green here at Princes Club, and today I'm going to talk to you a bit about wake surfing. Okay, this is a wake surfer and what you do is put a lot of weight on one side of the boat and that makes it kick up a nice big wave just behind the boat and it's basically like surfing behind the boat. So what you have to do to get up is it's very similar to a wake skate.

Have your heels on the board like this, the boat will go, and it will bring you to here and then you stand up, then you glide along and then what you need to do is you need to pull yourself into the wave. Try and get the edge of your board in the wave so it's making you keep your speed. If you're going too fast, you put weight on your back foot and if you're going too slowly, you put weight on your front foot and that will make you speed up down the wave.

Okay, that's just a few tips on how to wake surf. Enjoy yourself and keep practicing. .
