 |
|
| OK here is my dilema, I dont know a whole lot about wakeboards. Just enough to get myself hurt. I went to the local shop and was steered towards a Liquid Force Omega (137 or 131), Trip (138) and PS3 Limited. I am a beginner to intermediate and dont have a whole lot of experience on other boards. My current board is a CWB Pure. Anybody have firsthand experience (positive or negative) they would like to share would be much appreciated. |

i would go with the PS3. also a 131 and a 137 has a lot of difference to them. make sure you get the right size.

PS3 is awesome, have the 137 myself. I ride it (6'2" / 175 lbs) as do my friends (5'11" / 145 lbs ; 5'9" / 135 lbs ; 6'2" 205 lbs (he needs a bigger board though...)).
My 5'11" friend and I are intermediate as well. We both love this board, get great pop, and super cushy landings compared to any board I've been on.
In fairness, I have not tried the other boards so I can't compare to those particular ones. I can only tell you how great the PS3 has been compared to all other boards I've ridden.

i can also vouch for the PS3, it is an awesome board
lawdog2131, the PS3 141 might be a little better for you
