Hey, im lookin for a new wakeboard. I am new to the sport but have wakeboarded on a friends board about 5 times. I can w2w heelside but dont get to ride it that much so thats all i can do. But if i get my own i will be able to ride like everday. I snowboard to so i caught on pretty quick.

I am 5'5" and weigh 135lbs, i have been looking for my own board. Ill get to ride all the time beings that we live on a lake Very Happy So i think i might progress quit quickly and therefore dont want just a beginner board. My friends board that i have ridden is the CWB pure 134. I liked the board, it had some good pop and handled nicely. My price limit is $500 so its gotta be under $500. I have been looking at the hyperlite apex package, hyperlite premier package, liquid force trip, liquid force substance and the ps3.

So could someone please help me choose a nice board?

I would say so. The Ps3 is supposed to be bad ass.

ok sweet. But i just dont like how limited the binding sizes are. Like i would need the 9-10 but i know my dad would like to learn also as his buddies wakeboard and he would probably need the 11 atleast. I think im gonna get the ps3 and maybe my dad can just get his own board.
