# Wakeboarding Tricks for Beginners: Your First 5 Moves

Ready to start learning tricks? Here are the first 5 wakeboarding moves to learn after you've mastered the basics.

## 1. Heelside Edge to Edge

Before learning jumps, master riding from heelside to toeside and back. This is the foundation of all wakeboarding.

## 2. Wake Jump (Heelside)

Your first jump. Approach the wake on your heelside edge, compress at the base of the wake, and extend through the top. Land with bent knees.

## 3. Wake Jump (Toeside)

Same as the heelside jump but on your toeside edge. Usually harder for beginners.

## 4. Surface 180

A flat-water spin. Shift your weight to your heels, let the board spin 180°, and ride switch (backward). Great for building board control.

## 5. Ollie

A flat-water jump with no wake. Pop off your back foot, bring your front foot up, and land with both feet together.
