Five steps to teach your child how to wakesurf.
We frequently receive inquiries about teaching children how to wakesurf. We have created a set of five simple steps that anyone can use to teach their children how to wakesurf.
It's essential for the child to be able to swim and feel at ease in the water alone before starting. Before diving into wakesurfing, anchor the boat and allow the child to swim and play for a while. Always keep in mind that the primary goal is to have fun!
Step 1. Get in the water with them
As you ride along with them, instruct them on how to maintain balance and make turns on the board.
3. When the boat is turned off, you can manually lift them up with the rope and platform as support. Since they will tend to resist, focus on guiding them to crunch up towards you during practice.
4. Gradually initiate the boat's movement as the child performs step number 3. Once they're up on the water surface, keep the wakesurf board steady to help them sense the standing position.
5. Repeat step 4, but this time encourage them to rise on their own away from the boat. Well done, you have succeeded! It's time to hit the water and ride the waves together.
