Once you have conquered standing up, there are some core skills that you will want to learn, the easiest of these is carving.

The same as most other board sports, when wakeboarding your heels are along one edge of the board and your toes are along the other.

Putting pressure on either your heels or toes will dig the edge into the water and the board will move in the direction of the edge you have dug.

Start with gentle carves on your heels, progressing to toeside carves.
