if i were you i would get a higher end model/brands such as l
liquid force
CWB
Hyperlite
O'brien

stay away from brands such as hydroslide,jobe, and just lower end modles

check www.boardstop.com for a good board finder ans www.wakeside.com for stats

I Disagree! If possible, try out multiple brands, and If you don't want to spend money right away, go pick up a lower priced brand, such as hydroslide, and when you know you like It for sure (which of course you will, It's wakeboarding!) then you can buy a higher end board.

And I second www.boardstop.com, check out their board finder...
