Hey guys i am looking to start wakeboarding and I was wondering if this is a good combo
http://www.seedickride.com/products.asp?cat=combo
( the Liquid force search 143 w/flite)
and this for a rope
http://www.seedickride.com/products.asp?cat=rope
(Eva Foam handle w/65' mainline)

I am 6'2" 185lbs size 12 shoe the boat will be a 21 foot center console sea fox with 200 merc on it
How do you think this combo will work out?

I would spend the extra $100 or so and get the LF Trip with Alphas at the bottom of that page you will be glad you did. I would look at 138-142 for size. I have that mainline and handle it works ok but bought an accurate zero stretch to replace the mainline but I love the handle. Good luck.

demo them both if you can.. that decision will really depend on personal preferences.

I would choose the 143. you sound like a big guy and the additional surface area will help some with pop and you'll be able to tow at a lower speed which should help some in the learning process
