You take a package for an hour or two. Every time you fall, you come back to the starting pontoon (it gives a little break to your muscles 😉) Our advice: First, you get to know the machine on a kneeboard. Then, you add the balance with the water skis. Finally, you start doing side starts on a wakeboard or wakeskate. Once you master this, you are free to start trying jumps and slides on the obstacles you see on each side of the course. At this point wearing a helmet is mandatory!
