What should I get for a wakeboard and bindings?

Posted: September 12th, 2010 | Author: admin | Filed under: Wakeboard Bindings | 2 Comments »

I am 20 years old, 6′ 1" and about 175lb, and have just started to get into wakeboarding after my girlfriend’s parents bought a new wakeboarding boat. I currently ride her board and it is clearly to small and I think I should get myself a board for next summer. I can clear the wake with a 180, and I have snowboarded for years so I think I should probably get an intermediate set-up, but I definitely don’t want to spend a whole ton. I don’t know really what to get for bindings or a board so I would like some opinions on what to get. Any help would be cool, but I would really like to hear more in depth and personal advice than I can find on most web sites. If there is an important info I left out or questions I would be happy to answer.

I’ll start out with size. At 175lbs, you fall in the 139-142 range. I personally think you should go with a 140 or 141 for a happy medium. Here is a buying guide for you with detailed information about wakeboards.

Here’s a couple of good deals on wakeboards with bindings:

Look at the Liquid Force PS3 and CWB Kink. The PS3 is more forgiving while the Kink is a little more advanced and is highly adjustable.

    I suggest that you should go with maybe a 140 cm wakeboard. You can check out different wakeboards and bindings and get good deals on them here http://www.othersideboardsports.com/wakeboarding.html
