[@grantclaassen1837]

This is the vintage David OC video I've been missing!! Love it, such a great teacher

[@RickyImpey]

Great video and perfectly timed. I'm having a back-to-basics season trying to learn all the basics I bypassed when i got really excited trying to learn bigger tricks. I'm forcing myself to ride switch and learn all the 180s, not just the ones I like. This video is great to remind me what tricks to perfect. Looking forward to trying more weight on the front foot toeside as my toeside jumps can be shocking sometimes.

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

That's great to hear Ricky, I'm delighted to hear you're going back to basics, it will for sure stand to you in the long run!! That much I'm positive about! Keep having fun :)

[@markleslie8553]

David you have helped me learn so many tricks like 180 front and back, wake to wake 180 in the air and so many more thanks

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

Ahh that's amazing to hear, keep shredding :)

[@leemcwilliams6416]

Hi David Thanks alot for your riding switch tip of putting more weight on my front foot when riding switch feels much better and giving me more confidence. Top man

[@jayjackson5705]

Great video. Working on the 1 hand, 1 wake TS backroll. Dialed a wake to wake HS backroll, but can't tantrum or TS bkr yet.

[@BLAST55]

Great advises!!! Thanks!

[@artofthewake5863]

thanks for the help really needed this.😀

[@TheMarioPaintArtist]

Awesome video! I still need to learn the switch wake to wake. I’m hoping I can also nail down the TS wake to wake, but that feels near impossible right now when I try

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

You’ll get it! Keep trying and in the meantime I’ll see if I can film a tutorial on it?

[@TheMarioPaintArtist]

@@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder That would be really awesome! I need all of the tips I can get. I’ve hit my first wall in wakeboarding, where I’ve been trying the same things for a long time, but can’t land anything new.

[@jordanmedelis9998]

I need you to make A tutorial on how to move from side to side am still stuck on that and am in south Australia in the Murray river where we have big wake boats like Malibu's and stuff and every time they come pass I fall off so if you can help with how to get pass the waves when they come because everyone stirs the river up in summer The only time I can practice is in winter when the water is calm and there are no boats in the water thanks Jordie

[@Hello-sq3eh]

So all you really have to do it press your toes/heels into the water and maaaaaybe turn the board a little

[@corne_wolmarans]

Hey Dave, hope all is well, wanted to ask when will you be getting back into serious boat wakeboarding again? Missing those day on the lake videos with friends, big wakes and massive tricks.

[@philippgeiger1429]

Good video🔝

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

ThNk you!

[@izzyscarr]

noooo I found this after the last boat ride of the year (most likely bc its not my boat), ill save this for next summer :(

[@ongptnjp]

So good clips, But I think your BG music a little bit louder. But I continue watching so good music

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

Good to know, I'll turn it down in the next video. Thanks

[@barcuda1250]

What was the boat the wake very narrow and my boats wake really wide so find interesting Cheers

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

Hey, it's a 'Glastron' - never heard of it before to be honest. If your wake is too wide, then try and go faster and/or shorten your rope!

[@barcuda1250]

Crack up i had a glastron And yer i feal cood be the hull i bult the boat so she her own tipe haha but i definitely think need to run little shorter rop Cheers

[@juliengagnon807]

Thanks Dave, you've helped me with many tricks over the years. Didn't know I was a heel side hero until now, but great vid now I might finally get toe side w2w

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

Haha! You'll have to get practicing!

[@jbw5485]

When practicing riding switch, can you just start that way while being pulled out of the water?

[@colhannan1]

Great Tips as to how to progress, I’m at the wake to wake and riding switch phase , so I can see a nice way to evolve my rudimentary skills. BTW which neck of the woods in Ireland is your backdrop? Looks lovely

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

Class, good luck! It's in Co.Cavan :)

[@Lyclah]

What's the optimum speed for trying 180? I can ride switch and jump but I can't find the courage to try 180 :( We ride at speed around 18mph do you reckon is it OK or fast?

[@katem3113]

How is the half cab different to the switch wake jump?

[@stephencolclough7978]

So is a half cab a switch fs180?

[@ERidParasoth]

You need to do the opposite with your audio man, lower the music volume and crank your speech volume.

[@tyler6562]

Second. Yo OC, can u comment? That's be sick!

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

🙌🏻🏄🏻‍♂️

[@aquazez5414]

First

[@uncaringnick7438]

Dude I can’t ride switch to save my life anyone got tips? 🤙🖤

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

Learn it!!! Sounds silly but practicing it for 5/10 mins every time you ride really makes a difference. Do that 10 times and you’ll transform it!
