Wakeboard Racks

Wakeboarding is a different kind of extreme water sport. It is a combination of water skiing and surfing, where one literally has to ride the wake of a speeding boat and do certain manoeuvres. The fun and excitement in wakeboarding has to do with speed rush and the fact that it involves all these different kinds of moves, where wake boarders can fly, slide or jump to feel the rush. One such move or style is called a wakeboarding tantrum. When one executes this move, it is assumed that he has already mastered a certain level of proficiency with this sport.

Essentially, a tantrum is similar to a laid-out type of back flipping we usually witness from those jumping on trampolines. But for wakeboarding tantrum, the momentum is a lot higher and also more difficult and dangerous.

There is a correct way to do a tantrum; one that ensures you don't injure yourself from doing the manoeuvre.

First of all, in attempting a tantrum, you should be able to have proper control and you should stand comfortably but aggressively by the hillside or the edge of the board. This way, you can protect yourself from a getting injured in a big landing.

Then once you have established yourself, prepare for the cut. There are two cuts a rider can make: the progressive style, where the rider carefully inches his angle upon approaching the wake to increase his speed; and the continuous style, where the rider quickly changes his angle but must hold it on the approach so that he achieves a flatter ride.

Then transition from the cut to the invert (the flip). Recognize that there are also different ways of throwing an invert. You can either go with the momentum or go against the momentum. If you go with the momentum, such as doing a back flip, approach, speed and angle must be in a continuous style. When you go against the momentum, the wake becomes your launch pad and you go on the opposite direction of it upon the approach.

In landing properly, a rider must be on alert at all times. He should know where the water is. To protect from injury, the body must be stretched, the knees slightly bent to prepare for impact. Make sure you land on the middle of the board for safety reasons. And then cut from the boat immediately.

Other things to take note of:

Before you even attempt wakeboarding tantrum, you should have been able to practice back flipping on land.

Opt for the non-stretchable kind of rope.

Smooth open water is best for wakeboarding.

The optimum speed should be somewhere between twenty to twenty five mph.

Wakeboarding was made a legitimate sport back in the early 90's. And is a popular sport among teenagers and early 20somethings.
