For this video we are behind our 2018 Axis T22 with full ballast, including Plug and Play, Surf Right on Surf Gate for all of the riders. I ride with the wedge in position 2, my dad was riding with wedge position 4, and my little niece Holland was riding in lift mode.
What tricks do you use? Leave them in the comments below!

Thank you so much for the great tips! Your video helps a lot !
I was on a wake boat today. Learned a few tips from this. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing these tips.
Nice! These were awesome tips! I can’t wait to get out there and try them out
Great video! If you are a beginner watch this video. She's very articulate and the clips on the water compliment it. Good Job!
Best tips by far! Thank you
Really enjoying your content! Our boat is on its way. Will revisit these sweet tips & tricks to teach everyone!
Great tips n presentation! Please do more videos on the correct posture for wakesurfing and tips on being a rider! Subscribed :)
Taught well! Good tips
Chantel, thank you! Your tips have been very helpful! :-D
Thanks for posting this!
Great tips !!!!
Very good explanation! Thx!
Very nice video. Thanks
Worked so well! Thanks for the tips!
Glad it helped!
move your foot a little closer towards the wave, then let the nose run up the wave and push it back down. Its the down sections where you get your speed boost. Try it with a rope, go as far back as you can and use only pumping to get the wave back.
Yes using the upper third “power zone” of the wave to then run down and increase speed.
Thanks for the tips. For pumping I think it is more of the board bouncing side to side vs the board bouncing front to back. I use my toes, which are almost hanging off the board (size 12 feet) to pump side to side.
looks like Lake Powell, my best epic trip ever was Wakeboarding Lake Powell with family, friends, and the AZ State Univ Wakedevils
Best place ever!
Soo beautiful! Lake Powell was our favorite trip! Vegas 3 days, Zion national park, grand canyon, and lake Powell for a week on a houseboat w wakeboat and jetski.
Me and my cousins like to tube behind my grandpas boat and my grandpa sometimes keeps us inside and outside of the Wake
Another tip as a driver is to slightly slow the boat down and let the rider catch up if they are falling back
Good video I just started wakesurfing and I usually stay up for 30 seconds any tips on staying up longer
When you say you only stay up for 30 seconds, what happens? Do you lose the wake and fall out the back? Or tip over? What boat and what board are you using?
what happend with me was id go to close, slam on the break, start losing the wave, slam on the gas, push the front of the board underwater, and fall 😂😂😂 im still learning how much to press but the times i can stay up its sooooo much fun
keep at it! you'll get it! just a little weight shift is all you need, and make sure you move your weight earlier than you think you need to. there's definitely a little lag between the weight shift and the board starting to move.
Whats up with the dead end ladder behind her
Thank you for your tips.What is the recommended speed? I am trying to get the sweet spot and I cannot get enough pull to keep me in the wake.
What kind of boat are you on, and what wake set up do you have?
Hi Chantel, this is an amazing video, thank you. Just wondering what board would you reccommend for beginning adults?
Hi Adrian, I really like the Liquid Force Primo (www.activewake.com/shop/aws-pro-shop/wakesurf/liquid-force-2021-primo-ltd-w-straps/) as a board that is easy to get up on and will grow with you. If you want a board that is just for beginners and you'll get something different as you get better, the Liquid Force Rocket (www.activewake.com/shop/aws-pro-shop/wakesurf/2021-liquid-force-rocket-wakesurf-board/). Not sure what will still be available in 2021s, but 2022s are coming out soon!
@@ChantelBoats thanks so much, I really appreciate it
Where is the lake you are surfing in the clips? Looks stunning!
Lake Powell! And it is!
Hey Chantal, I have 2015 wakesetter 22VLX, something doesn't seem right with the wave, i couldn't hold in the pocket and always had to use the rope to pull myself back, and when going down stream in the river compared to upstream it changed so much when the speed was set. This is the first time I've surfed behind this boat as i only just bought it. Surf tabs were working fine, i just used the standard setting programmed in the boat for surfing which was 100% ballast in all tanks and then the surf tab for whichever side we had to surf. Any tips and creating a nicer surf wave? IS the standard setting of ballast not the best to use etc.. Or adding more ballast with bags? Or emptying the ballast a little on the opposite side I'm surfing?
Hey Matthew, sorry for the delayed response! Do you have the extra plug n play bags? Are you surfing regular or goofy?
If your wave is different going upriver vs downriver, it’s probably because the boat cruise control is anchoring to GPS speed over ground rather than apparent speed in the water. E.g. if you’re set at 10.5 mph GPS speed over ground, in a 1 mph river the boat and wave will act like 9.5 mph downstream and 11.5 mph upstream. Adjust your GPS speed when changing directions so you hit the same, desired speed through water.
Recently getting into wakesurfing I’ve Practiced about 2 sessions now and been trying to get comfortable with the wave and get the feeling for the sweet spot but when I start to go back a little I lean forward a good amount so i can go forward but then most of the time the front nose of my board goes down under the water am I leaning to forward? Or is my foot placements on the board to forward leading for the nose to go under?
Hi Angel! Definitely could be that you are leaning too far forward. Try to anticipate a little earlier when you need more weight forward and then you won’t have to lean so far forward. You can also experiment with foot placement, but if you get too far back on the board, you’ll have to lean forward the whole time! Hope this helps!
@@ChantelBoats thank you defiantly gonna practice more this summer and hopefully get it down thanks for the response.
My best time was 3 mins but I was holding on to the rope and not curving
I can’t seem to find a way to let go of the rope and stay on the wake
What kind of boat are you on? What board? There’s a new video coming about ways to throw the rope without letting it throw you off balance.
I live in England and there’s no way this is gonna happen any time soon unfortunately lmao, it looks like great fun though
Awesome ,...what lake is that?
The actual surfing was done at Lake Powell - the dock shots were done at a private lake in Idaho.
when were u at powell 2018 over the 24 of july?
We go every year in August!
hello i would like to ask you for how long can I wakesurf with practice? what is the average time someone can stand with your experience?
Once you get the hang of it, you can pretty much surf for however long you want, or until you run out of lake. Most of the falls just come from trying tricks, or just being done with your set.
How do you get up?
I will hopefully get a video on that shortly!
Ok thank you!
Chantel where is this??
Lake Powell! Best place ever.
I see this is an Axis...what is your ballast setting in this video?
Full ballast. For different size riders and ability levels, we just adjust the Power Wedge setting.
Thank you! So for beginner, what do you recommend on the wedge? Sorry...follow up, just stock ballast or do also add ballasts to the pnp? Thanks!!
The three stock hard tanks, plus the bow bag and the two rear p n p bags! If it’s a beginner kid, Lift. Beginner adult, a 1 or 2, then higher if they need more push!
I thought that was a little kid on the board! 🤣🤣. People should learn to surf in the ocean first. As a surfer I see so many wakesurfers who apparently are pretty good making so many mistakes with body positioning and especially their leading arm position. Watch pro surfers wakesurf for the first time. They totally rip it to shreds 😉
Where was the turn into the rider segment shot? What lake?
Lake Powell! Best place ever!
Taught well! Good tips
