HeyWakeBoarRder180,
I don't want to discourage you in any way but what's really going to improve the amount of air is your technique. Load the line, stand tall, hit everything just right and you'll fly...

Do you have your wake shaped? Do you use a spectra mainline? Towers/pylons will improve your "air time" once you're up there but some beginners think they will actually pull them up, nope...

The pros and those who are good make it look very easy to put it all together (they've done it a zillion times and know, to use a tennis term - the "sweat spot") but it's not, practice is what's going to get you airborn.

Demo some boards before you buy.

Wes
