Do wakeboards make a difference?

[moneyg]

I have an 8 year old 141 hyperlite beginner board, and I'm thinking about upgrading, but I was wondering if newer, better wakeboards make a big difference. The wake I use is about a foot tall and we do not have a pylon or tower. Would a $300 or so wakeboard help me get higher and give me more hang time, or should I stick with what I have? If someone could help me out that would be awesome.

Also, I was looking at the Liquid Force PS3 and I can get it for around $250, would that be a good buy or not?

Thanks

first off yes def get a new board, new boards have more pop, are lighter, 3-stage rocker, second im guessing u still have the same 8 year old bindings so get new ones, and third i highly recommend u getting that ps3 for 250$ thats a great price.

I ride an 06' PS3 and it is an awesome board and that is a good deal, you definately need better bindings to go with your kickass board, and try to make friends that wakeboard also, they might take you out with them

trust me, ive tried makin friends, but im the only wakeboarder on my lake.

I would get bindings first, unless you are happy with the ones you have.

Laugh Damon, I second that, IMO good bindings are the most important part of your setup.

I have an 2004 board and its better than some of the 2006 board.
