Getting up on a Wakesurf Board

Riding on a Wakesurf Board isn't as hard as getting up for the first time.  Why does it look so easy when someone else does it?  Because they have muscle memory built up and it takes a lot less effort after you have succeeded multiple times.  Once you have mastered getting up on the board riding on top takes less effort and less time to grasp the concept.  Now throwing the rope in the boat might be a different story.
