um were to start...
getting up - start on ur arse with the board sideways infront of u, when the boat starts to move u will get pulled out of the water then turn the board around so its inline with the boat.
carving - have most of ur weight on the back of board, on your back leg, and put weight on ur heal and toe to turn the way u want to go.
boat speed - i go at about 23 knots
rope length - 15 - 30 feet
bingings should be side on
dont worry bout the bolts or whatever fell into the water just go back to the chop were u brought it from if you have problems, and the bindings ar proberly a bit small, if you get do up ones youl get more ankle suppoort and they are easyer to get on.
good luck wakeboarding, have fun
