If only there was a section of this forum dedicated entirely to wakeskating.

39-41" would be great for you OP. |

Second that, more around 39 would probably be good for your size.

| Hell I wasn't even paying attention when I posted this. I had just came to work. AKA ( just woke up) and wasn't on top of my game just yet. The reason I didn't think about it is because I just got a wild hair and thought I'll start wakeskating and have never looked at the forum before so didn't think about it being there. I don't worry with it though. I got my answer so thats all that matters. |
