that video of that little dude is awesome, but please SOMEBODY in that boat move some weight or people over to the port side and clean up that wake for the kid. Nothing fun about railing into your toeside wake with 5" of wash on the lip that grabs your board.... It was hard to enjoy the riding when all i was paying attention to was that washy wake :)

This is a terrible iPhone photo of my boy's second attempt, he got up and rode 25 feet or so and saw rollers coming so he dove into them and let go of the handle. This is at sunset and we had no idea he was going to try that day. Anyhow, this was shot as he just barely gets up out of the water and turns his board. So stoked to be a Dad.

And another of him in the water with my cousin who had to go flip him over after he fell :D

Thanks for all the comments.
Luke has progressed quite a bit the last couple of months... there is no way he would have been able to learn to edge as fast on our previous inboard. I have had the axis for over three years and even happier with it now that I realized how friendly the wake is for small kids.

John - Good to see Jackson riding! I know I always say lets go ride... but if you have a weekend off Luke and I would love to come ride with you guys.

Mine just got up behind the boat for the first time yesterday! Was already edging and crossing the wake on both sides by this afternoon!

Walter, that is so awesome, learning really fast. He looks super solid too.

Ed. Absolutely. I may be riding tuesday, then maybe saturday. Let me know if you can do either. Also, I will be in havasu staying on the channel from sept 7-10. Adult trip but bringing the boat and if you and your family are out there, we should go ride...

Luke is the man! The second pic looks like he is about to fall but he is railing out so he can wave at the ladies on the beach. Haha watching kids learn to ride is the best. We shall shred this weekend!
