Liquid Force Team Vest (parents wantin to get me this)

I have wakeboarded over the past 2 summers and really enjoy it, Now that I'm getting out of paintball I want to start wakeboarding every weekend and save a hundred dollars, lol...So all I really need to know is if this is a good start up for someone who is going to stick with the sport.

I'm 5'6, 135 lbs, with a size 9 1/2 foot

Yep its fine. My only concern it that the shorter 134 team might be better suited for your size.

Yeah, Koltman is right, a 134 might be a better size for your height.

Agfan brings up a valid point. How are you going to save money going from paintball to wakeboarding with the price of gas and to get a decent wake you need some ballast to push through the water. But cheers man happy boarding.

Yeah thats a pretty good set up, i had the older version of that board and loved it, next time i would suggest a HYPERLITE they are kick ass! Colorful

Save money wakeboarding? HA! What are you thinking? Pick up a hobby like collecting Lamborghini's and you can save some money.
