Wakeboard Zone has just released a new section of their website that has all of the basics on Wakeboard Tower Tips. This is part of a new community website that is all about Wakeboarding Towers. Members and non-members can visit this Wakeboard Tower Tips page on the Wakeboard Zone website for free at: www.wakeboardzone.org.
Here is an excerpt from the new Wakeboard Tower information webpage:
" You need to learn the basics first. The best way to start as a beginner is to have the design of the tower before starting the construction. You may also get a ready-made design downloaded from a relevant website. However, before that you need to measure the size of your wakeboard as the tower is always built according to the size, design and the purpose, you wish to fulfill.
The few things that need to be kept are 6463 or 6063 aluminum pipe, segmented according to the required angles. The basic things that you need to keep also include a wielding machine and an airbrush. Start the process by taking a 2” square pipe so that it allows you to round it over the corners with the help of a router. Using hydraulic roller, roll the tubes after cutting them to specified angles. You need to keep the joints flexible and after cutting the pipes, you need to assemble them according to the specifications before wielding it finally. You can opt for TIG wielding as it provides strong, neat and clean welding. However, it is always suggested to get a pull test done to check the strength of the tower. Don't get worried if it takes a little longer for you as it would be slightly difficult to carry out the work with ease unless you are an expert. Try to look that it does not suffer any scratches or dents during construction as that would make it less attractive."
