So many people want to start jumping the wake right away. One of the most important things you can focus on that is often overlooked is proper edging technique. In my years of instructing people how to wakeboard properly, a common problem is not having the proper edging to allow you to get the air you want and further facilitate the bigger tricks like flips and spins.
Focus on learning how to approach both sides of the wake, not just your heelside edge, practice at both heelside and toeside edging. Proper edge technique consists of getting a "progressive edge" to the wake, meaning, your edge gets progressively harder as you get closer to the wake. A common error made by many riders is to edge really hard at first, flatten the board out and try to jump at the wake. Correct edge technique is done by edging far outside the wake, flattening the board out, and slowly, progressively edging harder and harder back towards the wake. Your hardest edge should be as you rise up the wake, stay on edge all the way through the wake and use the tension you've created in the line to help propel you upwards.
If you can get your edging (heelside and toeside) down correctly, you'll be able to progress so much more quickly.
