Can He Go Wake to Wake For The First Time?! Live Coaching with Shaun Murray

If you're learning how to jump wake to wake on a wakeboard, this video will help you understand the technique, speed, rope length, and physics that can make your first wake to wake jump feel a whole lot less intimidating. I coach Judge through his first wake to wake jump attempts after a hard wakeboarding fall at Lake Powell a few years ago. Like a lot of riders these days, that experience pushed him toward wakesurfing instead. And I get it. I love wakesurfing too! But wakeboarding doesn't have to feel like a high-risk experience. In this video, I break down what's actually happening during a wake to wake jump and show you how proper technique can help you progress with more confidence and control. We cover: • How to jump wake to wake on a wakeboard • Wakeboard jump technique and approach • How fast you should go for a wake to wake jump • The best rope length for learning wake to wake • Whether you should use ballast • How the physics of a wakeboard jump actually work • Common mistakes that can lead to hard falls • How to build confidence and progress safely Once you understand what the board, rope, boat, and wake are actually doing, jumping wake to wake can feel a lot less scary. And when you finally land that first clean wake to wake jump, it's one of the best feelings in wakeboarding! 0:00 Intro 0:46 Boat speed, rope length, settings and first one wake jump 1:10 The Power Position 2:13 First wake to wake jump attempts 4:47 Coaching tips after a fall 6:06 Second round of wake to wake jump attempts 8:46 absorbing the power/energy 9:22 Don't turn into the wake 10:13 Really good pop off the wake 11:25 First wake to wake jump 11:56 Outro with information on board sizing and boat speed PRIVATE WAKEBOARD COACHING WITH SHAUN MURRAY: https://shaunmurray.com/coaching/ PROGRESSION HYPERLITE WAKEBOARD ROPE: https://shaun-murray.myshopify.com/collections/frontpage/products/pro-rope-package MY WAKEBOARD: https://www.hyperlite.com/products/wakeboards-murray BOAT REVIEW PLAYLIST: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLzW7auimACTqbRtlJx6HS1_erG5dKVXt1&si=aTuS4_JAFl5J2d_X MORE POPULAR VIDEOS: HOW TO GET UP ON A WAKEBOARD: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUCU-DjhICo MY FIRST RIDE BEHIND THE ELECTRIC BOAT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UC_IuAAT9rU SHAUN MURRAY'S CHALLENGE | NONSTOP SKI, WAKEBOARD & WAKESURF: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDYL3KqS554 FACING FEARS | THIS TRICK SENT ME TO THE HOSPITAL TWICE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8j1QiBVXvF0 FOLLOW SHAUN MURRAY: Instagram: https://instagram.com/shaunmurray Facebook: https://facebook.com/ShaunMurrayWake #wakeboarding #wakeboard #wakeboardingtips
