@@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder Dude, you are awesome! I'm hitting a cable park for the first time tomorrow, can't stop watching your vids in preparation!!!

[@Nomadic95]

Bro this is perfectly rated the quality is maxed out to 360p

[@Bacardidaim]

I fully agree with H.H Wakeboard. I've been boarding cables for about 15 years now. Your commitment, passion and enthusiasm are inspiring even for veteran boarders ;) Further more, you seem to have a talent to explain the wakeboardlanguage & scene into "normal" english. Keep it up!

[@MrBRONCOTIME]

Thanks for the important info David love the tutorial.

[@jeffmarkel5351]

Yes this is great! a progression of tricks for cable is just what I need.

[@stevenh1]

Great video David, keep them coming 👍🏻

[@whatwouldbenice]

Cable park just opened in my city - this is what a needed 🤙

[@grantrowson6580]

Dave, Good tutorials. I know how to do a lap of a cable park but the switch, ive tried before with a face plant added. I think I know what I was doing wrong now. Cheers

[@darrenmiller3333]

Great explanation, I'd love a toeside turn video on the system 2

[@toothless-spy6492]

[@morganrogers95]

Never rode cable. This seems helpful. Thanks dude!

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

sweeeeet :)

[@dmitry_simply_speaking]

my wife and I tried wakeboarding for the first time, man, your deep core muscles hurt a lot, not to speak of shoulder blades and triceps. I'll definitely learn more stuff. BTW, "lads and lassies" sounds so sweet. thumbs up!

[@gregorysalter6226]

Deep core yes

[@andreashofreiter6176]

Thanks David und guten Morgen ;)! I am currently working on those things and also riding with my hand in blind position and handle bar transfers. My problem is that somehow I feel like the cable is restricting me if that makes any sense (coming from snowboarding and skating). I guess I need to learn how to get less tension in the rope when I need it.

[@brick3rs481]

I love your channel keep making good video's btw i tried some of them|ollie 180°surface and the box and big kicker

[@explorer47422]

Is Zac Efron the instructor??

[@timohone145]

It all makes sense now!

[@Jasmine.t2003]

This helped:)

Hello I have been watching for a while now but just recently subscribed (sorry for that but I have been forgetting) but I just tried to wake board today and got up after about 15-30 tries on an old inboard outboard boat. Anyways After putting my right foot into the boot after a crash I noticed that I had ripped through the boot and wanted to know what boots I should get for a beginner rider and for decently cheap because I don’t have enough money for expensive boots right now because of coronavirus. And second my life jacket is the right size but isn’t fitting to my body right so it keeps riding up on my chest and getting In my face so what would be a good (cheapish) life jacket or life vest (one of the shirt kind of life jackets without zippers or buckles)

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

Hey How's things :) Okay awesome. So to answer both your questions. 1. Bindings. If it's for a beginner and you want something nice and cheap then I'd suggest Open Toe. Something like these for just over $200 obrien.com/product/2020-obrien-connect-wakeboard-bindings/ If these are still out of your budget then I'd recommend getting on craigslist or something similar, you should find something that will do the job for quite cheap. 2. Similar situation, if you want something nice and cheap then craigslist, however as it's a vest I'd be cautious and maybe consider spending a small bit more for your safety. If it rides up on you then I'd think that it's slightly too big (generally this is the cause of that). Also, trying on a vest helps laods too :)

[@bozobobwart3339]

Hey David, Great vid! This might be a silly question but do you recommend keeping your fins on the wakeboard or taking them off at a certain point? Keep up the awesome work man!

[@DaveTW65]

BozoBobWart 333 I second that question

[@LikeABawzs]

If you want to do obstacles, take em off. If you dont, and you are able to do surface 180s with it. Leave em on. Behind the boat, leave em on.

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

yeah so basically I think if it's on boat then keep them on and if it's on cable take them off. However I'll do a full video on this soon as it also depends if the board has folded fins and channels. :)

[@DaveTW65]

I only board behind a boat but my beginner boards were quite flat and featureless on the bottom and as a beginner found it easier to cut and steer with fins,last year I moved up to an intermediate obrian board similar to Dave’s and found it impossible to switch with fins on with the board in the water,long story short-a board that is taylored to your style shouldn’t need them once you reach a certain level

[@greggormaco1090]

How to do Bel Air?

[@captaindbheadcase1303]

Are you allowed to wear your glasses at a cable wakepark.?

[@wernerwakevibes3838]

what cameras and lenses do you use? I will buy a new dslr or dslm

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

I use a Lumix G80 with the stock lens on it. It's not the best but it does the job and it's easy to use as often its just a friend helping me film :)

[@cactusdill-dos2579]

Davo, I feel like such a kook when I ride switch, I just feel so unco, help!!

[@ShayneSacramento]

Yea switch its the weird feeling. 😂 Switch blind is quite hard for me, I got dirty back plant. I got head ache after. 🙄😅 Can you make a tutorial video of toe back 540? I wanna learn that.. thank you!! ♥️

[@DavidOCaoimhWakeboarder]

hahaah ohhhh noooo. They are the worst!!! Interesting, I'll maybe give that a go soon :)

[@ShayneSacramento]
