WELCOME!

Alright first of all brotha man. We here are mostly American, so that weight, means jack stuff too me. Anyway, on the front page of wakeboarder.com there is a link you can click "Boardfinder" that will help you.

61kg is about 150 lbs if I remember correctly, so a 137 should be ok for you. I weigh 165 and ride a 139, but its really jsut personal preference I just wouldnt go any smaller than 137.

The PS3 is a really rough board with a huge flat spot. It will definately do the trick in getting you more air to hopefully throw that 360. On the downside though, it is an advanced riders board, and I personally didnt like it. Of course I ride an O'Brien vision, which has a continuous rocker to it, so its smoother in the water. Anyways, you might want to shop around and see whats out there. Maybe demo some boards from a pro ship or ask some of your friends if you can session their rides for a little bit to find out what you like best. But if theres nothing else out there, and you can get a killer deal on the PS3, I would say go ahead and get it. You can always turn around and sell it if you dont like it. Just take care of it well enough. Peace.
