rockhouse, $300-$400 will buy any wakeskate you want. But I would probably say a 40 or 41 probably a 41 and you want something wide...oak wakeskates are good...and they have a ton for sale right now on sale for cheap..do you want a bi-level or concave?

Yea size 41 would probably be good for you. Sattelyte makes some really good skates, as well as Integrity, Oak, and many others. Like br said $300-400 dollars will pretty much buy you whatever you want.
