ive been using rentals and i know the basics well enough that i want a board i can grow on. something a little more "advanced" i will be wakeboarding for a month and would like to start doing some tricks.

basically im thinking of buying a new or used board on ebay or somewhere else and selling it after the summer. how do i make sure i dont get a warped or messed up board on ebay? are there "refurbished" boards that are guaranteed in good condition but chaper then new?

give me some board names, links, names, ideas, etc.

i figure i can get some ceap used bindings as long as they are the right size, unless they are important?

thank you, sorry for making another "what board is for me" thread

the universal answer for all of theese questions is www.boardstop.com

use their boardfinder, its very helpful and sorts through all kinds of boards depending on your size, preference and style.

i'm basically the same size as you and i have a hydroslide matrix. i know blah blah hydroslide sucks at wakeboards but if your not doing huge tricks this year it was a good price. but i didnt get it online i got it new at bass pro shops a while ago

I'm trying to find the perfect board for me. I'm an artist, so I like to design boards. I'm trying to make the perfect board for me and what kind of tricks i want to do.

You can try to do that. Research like nuts about how to buy a board, then draw it very detailed. Then you go online and find a board that is shaped just like the one you designed and voila.
