Knee boarding is much easier to learn than wake boarding. If he has bad knees, then it may be out of the question, but wake boarding isn't particularly good for the knees either. Knee boarding can be done at a much slower speed than wake boarding or skiing. Also, the falls are not near as bad on a knee board. Something that is really fun and easy but doesn't involve a board is tubing. it requires a lot of upper body strength and is much more tiring than one might think.

I am not saying that it is immpossible but it is very difficult. So I would have to go with a kneeboard. It all depends on how big and athletic he is.
