Im looking for a cheap wakeboard to just ride around in, maybe do some surface tricks or small jumps if i get there. Will this body glove concept wakeboard with bindings be sufficient for that? Or does it suck and i should stay away from it. Also, will it be too big for someone like 90lbs?

Bunchkin, yeah, that board is way too big for someone that weighs 90lbs. You should probably be looking in the 130-134 range.

Will it work for just carving around, probably, but your money would probably be better spent on a board that fits you. Also for that price range you could pick up a much nicer board that will be able to stay with you as you progress. (Not to mention the bindings will be HEAPS more supportive and comfortable.)

Check out: Liquid Force Team 130 with Liquid Force Alpha bindings

Or: Pick your board and bindings, and it'll still probably be cheaper.

I guess what I'm getting at is that you can get a much higher quality product that will actually fit you for cheaper than that board.

Just my two cents.
