What wakeboard and bindings are right me?

Posted: July 26th, 2010 | Author: admin | Filed under: Wakeboard Bindings | 1 Comment »

I am a 5′3 145 LB lady. I am a beginner I went wake boarding one day at a lake and just loved it so I decided to get my own. I would like to keep the price on the lower side, but still be a good board and bindings. i also wear size 8 and a half womens in shoes if that has to do with anything. Please help.

depending on brand you need a 134ish size board. Just get the best one you can afford. It dooesn’t have to be top of the line for you to learn on. look at the brand names, you don’t want something that comes from any store with the word "mart" in it. other than that, you’re good.

Wakeboard tower for my boat?

Posted: July 22nd, 2010 | Author: admin | Filed under: Wakeboard Tower | 2 Comments »

I have a 17 ft key largo with a 90 horse yamaha 2 stroke boat, the boat is an 06′ model. I recently got into wakeboarding and have been doing it constantly, i want to know if it is possible to mount a Wakeboard Tower on it. So can I do it and where would I buy one?

i probably wouldnt put a tower on top of that boat,
1) it only has 90hp, that might not be enough to pull somebody wakeboarding very well,
2) the boat doesnt look very wakeboard tower acceptable, it might fit if it is custom made

maybe want to do more research into it


Can you wakeboard on a boat without a tower?

cause i jsut have normal tow boat and i cant get up with the wakeboard is there soemthing diffrent you do with just a tow boat not a tower?

you can wakeboard on a boat without a tower, the difference is a matter of jump height, a tower pulls you into the air, a boat doesnt give this advantage…. so it is very possible to wakeboard w/o a tower


Is it hard wakeboarding without a wakeboard tower??? (On a boat, of course)?

A Monery 180 Edge, 190hp, No tower.

Not really. You can’t achieve quite the height you would with a tower. But it’s definitely possible. If you’re a beginner, a tower probably would hinder you a bit. And truthfully, for most tricks, the tower isn’t necessary. As long as you attach it to the boat, you’ll be fine to cruise around behind the boat and get a little height off the wake.
Happy wakeboarding!


Wakeboard Tower on aluminum jet boat?

Posted: July 8th, 2010 | Author: admin | Filed under: Wakeboard Tower | 1 Comment »

I’m curious if it is at all possible to install a Wakeboard Tower on an aluminum jet boat? It’s probably uncommon for anyone to want this on this type of boat, but I have found it to work quite well for wakeboarding. And I think it would really be better with a tower.

Here is the boat I have (Almost).
http://thunderjet.com/boat-inboard_alexis_classic_21.html#
This is the boat I have, minus the nice tower that goes around the cockpit. I have the boat a few generations before when they didn’t include that tower.

If anyone knows a solution to this, Please let me know!

I find it hard to believe that you’ve had good luck wake boarding behind this jet boat. It doesn’t make any wake. The great part about wake boarding is riding the wake, and your jet boat is so light it just planes on the surface. I also think you’d have problems with a tower because it will make you too top heavy. The boat doesn’t have that much beam, and if you move the center of gravity that much higher with a tower it will only become more unstable. It would pull just fine going straight ahead, but when you turned you’d come close to capsizing the boat if you had a big rider behind it. I don’t think what your calling a tower in the picture is designed for pulling skiers or wake boarders. The shape of the tower is wrong. They’d using different bracing in the stern if it was designed for pulling. I think what your calling a tower is only there as a grab rail to help people keep their balance and not fall out of the boat.


Can I wakeboard without a tower?

With a 190hp (inboard) montery edge 180.

yes, it just makes it more difficult to get up, i used to do it on a bayliner until one of my friends got a mastercraft, and i noticed a dramatic change in the work it takes to get up.
