I ride an Omega 139. It has molded side fins and also comes with a 1.5 center fin so it is good for beginners and progressing. As you get more advanced you can get a smaller center fin or ride finless.

you can pull off some sketchy landings with this board cause it hooks up quick.....but when you catch an edge...YOU CATCH AN EDGE.

I have only been riding a year but I am progressing quick and I am still happy with it. I was told by an advanced rider that if he opened a wakeboard school the Omega is the board he would start people on.

i have a liquid force search 143 i love it, but i guess it is all a matter of what u like. i would start cheap and when u get the hang of it or don't break an ankle go big and spend the money. if u spend less than $200.00 on your first board with bindings u won't like it.
