Need help PLEASE
I know board questions are boring
Trying to convert a trickskier into a wakeboarder. She's gonna give it one more try cuz she hated it the first time. So she's 5'2", 110 #. With a 'conversion' could a 119 Hyperlite board work for her and help convert her to wakeboarding ???

that seems pretty small... you could prolly have her at a 131 or so... maybe a 128 somewhere in between there

119 is WAY to small. I'm about the same size, and people laughed at me because they thought a 128 was too small for me. go for a 128-135. Bigger might be a little better. btw, why do you want to convert her so badly? Doesn't she have fun doing what she does?
