kid wakeboard size?

My little cousin is getting much more interested in to wakeboarding after riding my board a few times and now wants to get his own board. Mine (being a 138) is obviously way too big but he was able to get up and ride on his 3rd attempt. He's probably about 4'6" and 80lbs. Not too sure which board out there will best fit him so I was hoping for some suggestions from the community.

-thanks

Hey i started riding out on a Hyperlite state 125. My little brother uses it now but he is a little bigger than your cousin. Was a great board just grew out of it!! maybe even if you can find a 123 would work great

Somewhere in that low to mid 120's range would work well. Our boys ride a 122. One is 11 and he is about 90#. The other is 9 and about 60#.

A LF Nemesis 124 would be a great board for him!

I would second the Nemesis...that's what our boys ride. Good all around board.
