]]> The double up. These days it’s not as prominent as it once was. Thanks to bigger boats with gigantic wakes, riders no longer need it to learn new tricks. Not to mention, those gigantic wakes make even more gigantic double ups, which can make even the most pro of professional riders pucker up just a bit. Going big will never go out of style though, and some of today’s younger riders are saddling up and learning to master that bucking bronco that is two large wakes converging to make the beautiful launch pad known as the double up.

Meagan Ethell has been at the top of women’s wakeboarding for years now, but she’s never content to rest on her laurels. This spring she pushed herself to start learning double ups. As you can see, it’s not easy, and it definitely takes timing, coordination, and some strong nerves. Props to her for going for it, and we know that it won’t be long before we see her doing some pretty awesome stuff off the double up!

]]> In the latest installment of Pros Learn a New Trick, we head out with young buck Tyler Higham as he goes for a switch wrapped backside 7 with a nose grab. Just reading that, it seems like it’s something that should take a lot of tries to learn, right? Or at least a lot of tries to get it right and looking good. Well, Tyler is not your average young wakeboarder. In fact, he’s ridiculously good. Take a look at the video to see just how long it took the West Coast kid to put this technical maneuver in the can.

]]> After spending much of last season off the water to recover from an injury, Tony Iacconi is back on his board and feeling good. He recently returned to his Orlando home to get ready for the 2018 season. What better way to tune up than try learning a new trick? Tony has never really done wrapped tricks before, so he figured it was about time.

Watch the video to see how he went about learning a wrapped backside 540. If you’ve ever tried learning a wrapped trick, Tony’s first couple “attempts” are definitely relatable!
