For owners and riders of boats including:
If you've never been coached by a professional wakesurfer, then this course will dramatically improve your surfing.
You've got the boat. You've got the board.
So why are you still holding the rope?
You've circled through the YouTube clips — one says lean forward, the next says don't. The kids get up fine, but the wave you set for them is mush. You can ride all day holding on, yet the second you let go, the wave spits you out the back.
It's not you. It's the order you're learning in. Wakesurfing is a chain of small skills, each one built on the last — stance before getup, slack before release, pocket before tricks. Learn them out of order and you plateau. Learn them in order and it feels easy.
That order is exactly what this course is: the same progression Ryan and Emma run on the boat with real riders, filmed properly, so you can run it behind your own boat. Because real progression always starts with the fundamentals.
Ten lessons. Zero to your first 360 — in the order that works.
Every technique is demonstrated on land and on the water, captured from multiple angles and broken down in slow motion — with clear drills and common-mistake corrections, so you can apply it immediately.

Filmed from the boat — exactly how you'll send in your clips
A world-ranked pro, watching your riding.
On the Premium tier, you film your ride, send it in, and get a personal breakdown from the coaches — what's working, what's holding you back, and the one fix for your next session. Then you go out, apply it, and send the next clip.
Three video reviews are included with Premium — three full cycles of personal coaching, a $199 value on its own.
Yes — it works with your boat.
Malibu, Nautique, MasterCraft, Centurion, Axis, Supra, Tige — every one of them throws a rideable wave. Shape, length and push are what vary. Lesson 3 walks you through ballast, speed and wave shape so your boat throws the best wave it's capable of — and teaches whoever's driving to pull you up smoothly and pick you up safely.
It teaches your kids too — or teaches you to teach them.
Every summer Emma coaches kids as young as six at real on-water camps — and watching a kid go from never-tried-it to riding in three days is exactly the progression this course is built on. The same steps work whether the rider is 8 or 58.
So run it either way: sit your kids in front of the lessons, or watch them yourself and become the coach on your own boat — what to say from the driver's seat, how to set a gentle wave, and the drills kids actually respond to. Wakesurfing is the rare watersport the whole boat can share: low impact, soft falls, feet never strapped in.
Less than one hour of on-water lessons.
Yours for life.

You'll ride better in 60 days — or you pay nothing.
It's called the First-Wave Guarantee, and it's simple: watch the course, take it to the boat, and if you're not getting up easier, riding longer, or closer to dropping the rope within 60 days, email and every cent comes back to you — promptly, with no forms and no questions. You keep the risk at zero; the course carries all of it.
Fair questions, straight answers.
Will this work with my boat?+
Yes. Every premium wake boat — Malibu, Nautique, MasterCraft, Centurion, Axis, Supra, Tige — makes a surfable wave. What changes between them is the shape and length of that wave. Lesson 3 shows you how to set ballast and speed so your boat throws the best wave it can.
Can my kids learn from this?+
Yes — and that's half the point. Emma coaches kids as young as six at real summer camps, and that experience is baked into the course. Younger kids do best with you as the coach: watch the lessons, then run the progression from the boat — Lesson 3 teaches you the driving, the gentle wave setup, and the safe pickup. Teens can follow the lessons themselves.
Am I too old for this? Too unfit?+
Wakesurfing is the low-impact watersport. Your feet aren't strapped in, the boat runs around 11 mph, and falls are soft. Riders from 5 to 80 learn it — if you can swim and climb back on a swim platform, you can learn to surf.
I've watched a pile of YouTube videos. Why would I pay for this?+
Because the clips contradict each other and skip the steps that matter. This course is one method, in the right order, from coaches who teach it on the water every day — and on the Premium tier they watch YOUR riding and tell you exactly what to fix. No free clip can do that.
How fast will I be riding without the rope?+
Most riders who follow the lessons in order and get regular boat time drop the rope within a handful of sessions. Lesson 5 exists purely to get you there — finding the pocket, gas and brake, and the micro-adjustments that keep you in the wave.
Surf-style or skim-style board — which do I need?+
As a beginner you'll want surf-style: thicker, more stable, catches the wave easily. Skim comes later, when you want spins. Lesson 2 covers exactly what to buy for your size and goals — before you spend money on the wrong board.
How long do I keep access?+
For life. Buy once, rewatch every season — including every future update to the course.
What if it doesn't work for me?+
Then you get every cent back. Watch the whole course, take it to the boat, and if you're not riding better within 60 days, email and you'll be refunded in full — no forms, no phone calls, no hard feelings.
Your boat already makes the wave.
Learn to ride it.
So jump in — and let's get started.
