- 1) Throw: Practise throwing your board as straight as possible on a thin film of water. 2) Run: Start running with the board in your hand, throw your board and then sprint to jump on it. Your last steps should be as fast as possible.
- 3) Jump: Jump on your board as gently as possible. Your feet should be in line with the centre of the board. These pointers should help you have the best ride possible. 4) Ride: Keep your knees bent to lower your centre of gravity, which will keep you more stable for a longer ride. 5) First tricks: Once you have mastered gliding along, try putting your hand on the ground to spin yourself around!
