When starting in the water you have to maintain a position with your weight kept back and knees kept bent, like you are squatting, when the boat starts to pull you forward.

There are many options for beginners to consider if they want to learn to wake board. Another option is by going to a special water sport school. Here they will have a trained instructor available to give you advice and tips for you to learn to wake board.
