how well does just an old wakeboard work, if i'm just wanting to get into the sport would it work just fine, or is it completly different then riding a real wakeskate

its completly different, its not the same effect at all, you can take the bindings off of it, and put some grip tape on it, and get used to riding like that, and get used to not being attached, but it rides totally different
