hi im a 15 year old wakeboarding for my 4th year. I'm starting to go big so i decided to get another board. I found an awsome deal for a brand new CWB Kink 141 with CWB Vapor Hinge Bindings for only $250!!! Talk about sweet deal!!! Anyways, I'm only 115 pounds, will this board be ok for me if I am starting to do flips and spins and big air?!? I need all the feedback I can get so type away!

It’s all your preference but I wouldn’t recommend it. Especially since the recommended weight by CWB for it is 150lbs and up…you better off to get the 134, plus a shorter board is considered easier to spin with because of the lack of length and weight. do whatever you want but you def don't want a board that's too big for you.

Its gonna be hella heavy doing spins, if you like bigger boards, I guess it would be okay, I am about the same size and ride a 135 and that is supposedly too big, but I used to it and have always used big skis so it didn't matter for me.
