When my daughter was 8,,,we would bring the ski into water that was over her head,,,and let her practice getting on..,until she could do it,,,then,,and only then,,,did we let her drive it,.and of course now you have to be 16,,,but the rules still apply…
And it goes without saying,,,trying to get on while you have a life jacket on,and boots,,,,,in deep water is nearly impossible,,on an hx…
these lessons were for a non hx’s,,,
From racing for many many years,,,I learned how to turn the bars the opposite way,,,hit the throttle,,,and have it pull me on,,,you better have good abs. ,for this,,,to pull up and get on…..
