Attempting Obstacles - Lesson 2 |Wakeboarding|

[@runrun1984]

Dave! Keep these lessons going! After watching this, I will definitely try the obstacles in my next session. ☺️

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

Unreal, that makes it worthwhile making. Good luck! :)

[@danaskully8020]

Yes, definitely continue step by step. I'm a newbie and there are most likely many more who'd like to watch your videos for beginners. Love them!

[@pikepunk1]

Good advice on asking the cable operator. They're always helpful. Also, don't be intimidated if it is your first time - everyone was a beginner once. You will fall. Everyone falls. Do not get in a rush for the person behind you either, just concentrate on what you are doing. I had an unfortunate experience once at a park that wasn't my home turf - there are jerks everywhere (rider in this case - employees were awesome), so just ignore them. Sorry to lump this one, just wanted to share.

[@zjcrazy94]

Good advice, what is your local cable park?

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

thanks for sharing these bits of advice man. Sucks to hear about the riders, I guess there are douchbags everywhere but at least the stafff and most other people were cool. Keep it up :)

[@pikepunk1]

Local may be a stretch :) - Mountain Wake is the closest to me, but Terminus is just a bit further. I live in east TN, so it's not too far, but not as convenient as I would like.

[@pikepunk1]

Thats right, Dave, and that is my point. Just keep riding and don't worry about it. Have a good time, and keep pushing.

[@zjcrazy94]

I'm in east Tn as well, wish there was somewhere a little closer.

[@IxXJoschiXxI]

Great that you´re doing a beginner series! When I started a year ago, I got all my advice from KZbin aswell. But I had to search for everything I wanted to learn, on it´s own...

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

I get you Eric, yeah I just think a clear pathway could come in handy :) :)

[@SavageTech]

Very helpfull video for all the new riders!!!Keep up the good work Dave!!!

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

thanks!! I will

[@adamlegend8392]

20 yrs ago I did a few weekends on the cable and finally managed to get up and go around, tense and all lol. Recently I went for the first time in ages and did it first time and even managed jumpstarts and a few switches! And a final switch/faceplant which hurt but I'm happy! Cheers for the instructions they make sense, to follow them you need energy, memory and balls at least haha!!

[@hoek0632]

Thanks, loud and clear!

[@marektoman]

Please continue with this mini-series 👍 looking forward to lesson 3

[@newlife171]

Great videos Dave ! We have just started wakeboarding at Bali Wake Park, your videos really help us. Come and visit here again !

[@jesperchristensen2775]

Yes please 🙏 keep up making more instruction vids 👌

[@jaapleenstra2678]

Great video, tomorrow I will have my first ride on the kabelpark! Wish me luck! 🤙🏄🏻‍♂️

[@liutauraslr]

Very helpful, thanks!

[@cjbottaro]

Show us what happens when you hit an obstacle while still on edge. Kidding! :) Newb wakeboarder here... I learned the hard way that it's probably better to learn how to flatten out on kickers first, otherwise the funbox can become the painbox. :D

[@matteo.f4815]

Good video David 👍🏼

[@jacobsierakowski8749]

Nice one Dave!

[@eclipsedluna1413]

Good vids keep them coming

[@layzsn8767]

Big fan of yours keep going cheers

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

thanks! I will :)

[@jasminevanasperen3799]

I would really like a set of videos like this but behind boat

[@justindriskell9473]

If I could make a suggestion, you should do a how to on wrapped tricks. Not all tricks, obviously, but basically how to get wrapped up and the approach and release🤙cheers

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

yeah like the concept of wrapped. Really good idea actually as I think it's different to how most people think. Thanks Justin

[@SA-uq6br]

Are there any videos on doing toeside turns on the 2 tower cable? To hit the kicker at my local place, you have to be able to do toeside turns (I can already do heelside)

[@cactusdill-dos2579]

Ahhhhh I see now why I have been getting pulled of the rails, cut a wee bit harder, allow for the cable?

[@TheCHrizzzzzzooo]

Great vids, do wakeskate stuff please...

[@kalkeh1vai]

Excellent video david! But how do you get more air on the kicker? i feel like i always just go over it but i dont get air

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

Thanks Lucas, so it's a combination of waiting till later and cutting harder at it, combined with getting low and standing tall at the top of the kicker. It can take a few trials and errors, but eventually you'll find the sweet spot :)

[@petery6775]

how to make corners if i have oposite stance ? in toe side... or each time i need to switch stance before corner ? and please keep going in Kite stuff :-) it is very interesting to watch

[@rushork4103]

Peter Y I find in my small time of wakeboarding that is is better to switch before corner but it is definately not needed. Ask your cable instructor.

[@justasimbrasas1866]

i don't understand why I should look to the side rather than straight when you're on the figure?

[@treenoss5066]

I already thought that I go for third time and start jumping

[@jomanramirez8457]

can you go to the philippines and teach me how to do it

[@jochenjunker1782]

why are you looking to the far shore and not in the direction of travel?

[@dominikoberlan8649]

Man can you make a film about this "underwhirly" or something you did last time. What do you think about it. Or not this 1 trick but a few tricks.

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

yessss, I want to do that a lot :) :)

[@dominikoberlan8649]

I'm waiting :D

[@matthewsorensen671]

When was this filmed davie

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

MATTHEW Sorensen last Tuesday 😊😊

[@DaKidPranks]

when was this filmed

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

like 2 days ago. How come :)

[@fernandoreyes680]

Boat or Cable?

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

which do I prefer? I'd have to say boat, but only by a tiny tiny bit
