The second title covers the invention and history of wakeboarding, equipment, basics for getting started, and information about qualifying and X-Game events. The third volume offers a brief history of freestyle skiing, necessary equipment, freestyle skiing styles, and basic competition structure. All three books have color photos, illustrations, and sidebars throughout.
