Low Risk Steps to Beginning Your 180's : Wakeboard Instruction
Vložit
- čas přidán 25. 07. 2024
- Riders often skip these steps because they either don't know how to go about them or they think they won't be that fun. You can listen in while I coach one of my students at OWC as he begins the process of doing 180's on his wakeboard and see it's a pretty enjoyable process. Bb Talkin' is the communication system I've been using for a while now and it has changed the coaching game worldwide in so many sports that I won't bother to begin listing them. Whether coaching or just freeriding, wakeboarding or snowboarding, Bb Talkin is always going with me and I encourage you to check it out! www.bbtalkinusa.com/

I watched this three days ago and then was able to attempt it yesterday with success!!! Don't think I could of done it without watching!!
Great to hear Kyle!
I got it too after this video! Good job bro!
This is so awesome! I love seeing people learning how to wakeboard, especially from a legend. You can learn wakeboarding without getting worked if the driver/instructor is patient with the rider and helps you with boat speed.
Thanks Matt!
What a cool video to actually watch you coach, sooo many tips, thanks Shaun!!
Thank you Shaun! While it’s great to see you demo your mad skills, it’s equally helpful to see how someone who actually boards like me can get better! Can’t wait to put this to use this summer.
Time to start some of these drills! Very helpful!
It's insane man. Shaun you got me so freaking into wakeboarding back in 2008. I'd watch your hyperlite videos and practice all day. Listening to you coach is so much better! The sport is lucky to have you.
Too kind Conner. Thanks though:)
Is my board supposed to be flat or cutting when I hit the wave for jumping
Amazing tuition. Found myself routing for this guy.
This is great information. Gonna try to go out on water this weekend for first time in new boat and first time wake boarding. But its COLD so well see how this dry suit works. Lots of good info here on lean and keeping the rope at right level. Watching you out there it all looks so easy but seeing this fella out there brought a lot of things into perspective....Also gonna grab that BBtalking kit. Thanks
Great video! Hold the line !! Very helpful training video. Thank You
Hi Shaun, I’ve just had my 73rd Birthday, so I’m a little bit late, and a few thousand miles adrift, but hey, I. have waterski’d , Wakeboarded, & Snow ski’d, and learnt to Snowboard when I was 60, all without much tuition. I have to say, your approach to teaching is Awesome. I do also have faith, so maybe one day, in that great Water Park in the Sky, who knows! Keep making these Great Video’s. Regards John G.
Just learned the wake to wake so riding right forward I feel like an elite wakeboarding master then switch I feel like someone replaced my knees with jelly
Learning so much from this , incredible dude ! Love from Northern Ireland 👌🏼❤️
This video was really helpful and cool
Shaun, thanks so much for posting this! Great video and fantastic instruction I can use for me , my wife and our 4 young children.
Please continue to post as much content like this as you and we all hope to take lessons with you next time we are down in Orlando.
Thanks again and God Bless, David
For sure Dave!
More of these videos would be awesome, they are super helpful!
Thanks for stopping by Max! Have you checked out my channel? You can find a bunch more content like this
Great to watch, I've got plenty to think about over the winter. No doubt I'll watch this a few more times before the boat comes out of hybernation!
Right on Finlay!
This is my favorite video of yours. As a beginner wakeboarder and driver. Thank you!
Awesome to hear and thanks for watching Gregory!
I ride identically to this guy! The tips you give for correction are going to help me huge! Thanks for these Shaun!
Great to hear Ryan. Most people's mistakes are pretty similar but not identical.
Learned loads Shaun... Instructive, calm, confident, concise, clear and insightful. The true mark of a great coach, thanks dude ;0)
Thanks Afro!
Shaun, I watched few of your instructions videos and was able to improve dramatically my wake-boarding, from just riding and small jumps to easy 180 bigger jumps and improving thank you so much for helping people like me I enjoy watching your online classes
Right on Amir! Love to hear some good feedback!
I love OWC!!!! Ride there a bunch during the Winter.
these are some awesome tips I cant wait to try them
Glad you like them!
This might be the most helpful wakeboarding video I've watched yet, (besides the book :P)
Do more of this video Shaun!
Thank you for posting your coaching session. Great info. Could you please upload more of your sessions?
Having some conversations to see how we can make that work.
This video was really helpful, I like the approach of safely learning first. I just got my first wake boat (older Malibu LSV) and injured my knee riding over my head on the second trip.
Going to back it down and try to work on the fundamentals at lower speed and single wake before doing that again.
Keep it fun and safe Adam! Too many people think you have to give up wakeboarding and go to only surfing bc of the risk. You don't have to send it to have a good time on a wakeboard!
Thank you for this video Shaun
You bet G!
Awesome video! Learned a ton
Thanks for the videos. This is good information.
For sure Pat!
Bro. You make this look so easy. I had a rough fall fly swatted catchin an edge. Took me a year to rehab. But im back at it. Thanks for all you do
Keep it slow. Keep it fun. Can do both by keeping it simple working on fundamentals. I have a lotta content in the area
Love the vids thanks bro!
Thanks for watching Cos
This was awesome you should do these more huge help!
Great to hear Cod
Shaun your riding is amazing behind the Paragon. Like I've said before you're one of the best spokesman for Nautique.
Much appreciated John!
Omg, I would LOVE to be coached by Shaun Murray but I'm in the NE 😭 I've been wakeboarding for about 3 or 4 years now and watch all the tutorials I possibly can!
This man made it look so easy😳
This is such a good tutorial! I must have watched this 10 times and I totally get it! Can’t wait to get back in the water in the uk to try this!
Lemme know how it goes Anthony!
Tried it today!! The weather wasn’t great so there was some chop but I definitely felt more power on my toe side edge. I’ll keep trying every week until it becomes more natural. Thanks Shaun
thank you for the training session! now imma go repeat all of these tomorrow when i go out ridin! also my dad told me he got to meet you when your girlfriend used to ride horses at a place he used to work at, he is so lucky.
Who's your dad? Which place for riding horses?
@@Shaun.Murray Dell Ray Westpalm beach is what he said, thanks for responding though i really look up to you!
Great great Video and great Coaching! I wish you had courses in my Country and you as a Coach! Much much Love and Respect from Germany!
Thanks! Been there quite a bit and some fun places to ride 👊🏼
@@Shaun.Murray Iam mostly riding on the Cabletrack "Garbsen Blauer See". Its the only one I have Close to my Hometown Hannover.
That head set is ingenious that would make learning so much easier
Honestly works amazingly. Bb talkin
I tried my first wake to wake 360 and I almost had it but I wouldn't even have tried it until I saw your vid on 360s thanks
Great news! Love to hear that good feedback!
Wow - this was awesome, and you're clearly a great coach. I always get nervous if i don't feel i'm learning something quick enough, but you were encouraging and find another way to help someone understand! I'm in my mid 30s and picked up a Tige ZX1 this last summer and spent a lot of time surfing and a little time wakeboarding. I wish I could get better at wakeboarding, but I have a hard time taking it slow to learn the basics. Would be pretty sweet to get lessons from someone like you!
Ryan, you'd be surprised how much fun learning "fun"damentals can be. You don't have to learn the flashy stuff to enjoy your ride. Forget about those people in the boat watching you. Your turn is for your fun. Check out the Detention videos I've uploaded here and take the time to start from the beginning. You'll have a fun season if you can do the little things that make board control fun. czcams.com/play/PLzW7auimACTo2jYfsUqGqaP0rUqRG6M1w.html
This is the best advice I’ve heard you give. I’ve always said in regard to board sports “who has the most fun wins”. Your comment involvement is top notch and appreciated!
wow that's so awesome that would be such an opportunity to get that kind of coaching
Hope to see you on the water Jeff!
Dude.. I am sick of the snow, but I need to learn like u, man im 43 and
broken neck back.I teach as well, I love the helmet talk. I wanna do a superman. but it might be super hard
Great instruction.
Thanks ASL!
thank you so much
For sure Denver!
Great video guys!!!!! 😊🤙🤙🍻🇦🇺
Thanks SCR!
Epic coaching! 👌
Thanks Ramin!
I know I'm late, but you should make more tutorial/coaching videos like this!
Thanks for watching! Have you checked out a lot of the content on my channel?
Riding switch feels like throwing left-handed. It is SO awkward for me.
It can but I have some tricks for that too:)
I hear you everytime I try it it's like the board just takes off I can only ride goofy snowboard or wakeboard. Got to keep trying been boarding for long time but never kept trying to switch.
@@paulgoulet4599 - Same here. If I start switch (I am goofy foot), I have ZERO control of the board. I try and mimic what I am doing when I ride normally but I just can't - I start veering off to the side and can't control the board at all. It feels so uncomfortable, I just avoid trying to improve it because all it does is wear me out and cut into my regular riding time.
@@onewheat yup exactly that!
In switch on a snowboard it helps to get extra low in your stance. Another good trick is to skate your brains out switch. Builds that muscle memory. Even just kicking a soccer or football with your non dominate foot helps, or jumping single leg off you non dominant leg. Things I experimented with coaching 8-12 year olds at HCSC.
Good training for 180 thanks for sharing My Cocah
Thanks Van!
Looks like so much fun having Shaun Murray talk to you while riding. My parents live in Lady Lake, which is about an hour from Orlando. I think I’m going to have to visit and book a lesson. How long does a lesson go for? And, do you do barefoot skiing lessons as well?
Would love to see a similar video of someone learning a heelside backroll or tantrum!
Will see what I can do about that Mark
That would be awesome to see! Shaun, LOVE the video man.
Wow,you have my vote for coach of the year now too,do you video all your sessions and give a copy to the lucky rider,I video all my sessions and rewatch them frequently when I can’t get back on the water and it keeps me from forgetting at least the mental aspects of what I learned last ride.
Working on a way to have the sessions recorded for uploading.
Shaun, thanks for putting these videos together for us, they are super helpful. Can I ask a board question, I am 5'7, 175# male, size 9 shoe can you recommend a board size? My local shop recommended a left over, a 2018 Liquid Force Classic 134.2 x 42.9. I'm curious what your recommendation is.
In my opinion a 134 is way too small. My 12 year old daughter rides my 134. I’m 5’6” 147 lbs and have been riding my 139 lately. Sometimes I ride my 144. I’d suggest going up to a 144 and I think you’ll really enjoy it
Awesome video. You have any tips on landing toe side? Always feel a bit out of control.
Start w at least this or maybe even go back a few videos on this playlist.
czcams.com/video/JwAtsdbB-Ws/video.html
Awesome instructional series. Thanks!
What do you mean lean against the line?
Hey Mr. Shaun where do I book lessons? I live about a hour from Orlando
head to my website and click lessons www.shaunmurray.com
did my first wake to wake today, ended up doing a backside 180 accidentally but successfully landed it. was pretty wild
you accidentally passed the handle behind your back and did a backside 180?
Hey Shaun! I am having trouble figuring out what leaning against the line feels like vs leaning back especially when trying to 180. Any advice would be great?! Thanks again
We use the Bb talkin
7:45 so that's what I looked like last Sunday catching toe side edge at 16 MPH. First time I've ever experienced a complete facial slap.
Many of us have been there and is why I teach people at slower speeds when working on fundamentals. 12-13mph for surface spins. 16-18 for board control, carving, ollies, 1 wake jumps etc...
@@Shaun.Murray Missed your reply. Watching this video again as I've been boarding once a week since then, water's been progressively warmer, but I've been a bit aimless with my practice, thinking I needed to speed up. I plan to do this tutorial Friday night to get more comfortable with my surface 180's and try out some while entering the wake.
I am so appreciative of you posting these novice training videos, I can't imagine trying to figure it out on my own.
Lean against the line, planning on telling myself that for the duration of my ride. Peace!!
I'm 11 I am going wakeboarding again tomorrow I have gotten the jump pretty smooth I have wakeboarded for like a month or two I get like a hour a day or more depends on if we have to leave our lake early I get to go like every week for a few days should I hold off on this trick or go for it?
Check out my playlist called Detention 2012 and look into the instruction there. I suggest starting at the beginning bc it all builds on itself.
It's ok! I first got my jump to like 5ft in air and then I just went for it I landed it then fell and the second time around I landed it and didn't fall :)
What's 'lean against the line' does it mean like being aligned with the rope?
Good question Charlotte. Check this video out where I go into more detail about leaning against the line czcams.com/video/eSJPitLMRY8/video.html
Does anyone know if I should remove the 2 center fins from my board to be able to try this? I am new to wakeboarding but a decent snowboarder and the fins feel like they keep me from changing to switch
Depends on how big your fins are. If they are more than 1" and you have molded in fins on the outside, then yes, take em off if you feel a little too locked down.
@@Shaun.Murray yes it has molded fins and 2 center 1.7in fins. I will take them off and see how it feels, thanks!
@@TheKfilter right on. let me know how it goes
how do you make your switch quicker?
Few things to consider. First, make sure you're practicing at slow speeds, 13ish mph behind the boat. Turn your hips while leaning against the line, don't pull the handle. Lean against the line, keep repeating that in your head. If you fall to the side, you're not leaning against the line. It has more to do w your core staying connecting and just turning your core, rather than turning your board. But, you can think about pushing your back foot towards the boat to release the fins, if you have any on the board. Practice this and then begin doing it faster and faster. But, it's not necessary to do it super fast honestly.
What would cause too much slack in the rope? Been trying to implement a lot of your tips, but I inevitably end up with too much slack and fall backwards. Could it be that I’m leaning too far back and letting the board get out from underneath me? That’s what it feels like, at least. (I’m 6’2” - 260lbs - riding a Murray 150 @ 17.5mph behind a ‘23 G23 with no ballast, if it helps)
When you cut away from the wake you’re going faster than the boat so get to the end of your cut, stop cutting and just glide, wait for the boat to catch up, and once you start to drift back in a little, that’s the cue to begin your progressive edge into the wake. That should keep the line tight
@@Shaun.MurrayI’ll give it a shot today 😊Thank you!
How long should the rope be and what brand
60-65 is generally a good starting point. I ride the Hyperlite Murray handle package.
Shaun Murray Ok thanks we were having some trouble with what length to buy so that helped!
Shout out to us snow lovers.
Woot woot! Me too!
What do you mean by lean against the line?
I know probably stupid question....
Not a stupid question. Actually takes a little explaining and I might do a video on that or answer your question w some other questions that are coming in.
Shaun Murray thanks man I love your vids lots of info and you have so much patience with your students. If I lived in the states I would definitely come for some lessons. Looking forward to the video
Thanks again.
