Posted: Aug 11, 2008 7:11 pm Post subject: Which Board? |
|
|
I already wakeboard but I kinda want to get into winch wakeskating. I have been looking for some boards but I dont know much of anything. Do I want grip tape or foam? I need help big time.
I'm about 5'6" and weigh around 135. I want to get the best board for winch skating but also one I can use behind the boat to screw around with. Thanks for the help!
PS. I know I sound very stupid and noobish but just help me out this time please _________________ -IndyColt42- |

There's no board made for winching. I'd suggest a NEW, Oak, or Devotid. It all depends on how much cash you have and much you want to get into the sport. But overall I'd suggest selling your strapping gear and get a skate cause once you try wakeskating you wont use your wakeboard anymore. _________________ http://www.flickr.com/photos/nizzate/ |

Look at other or older threads there are quite a few. Yes wakeskating isn't just screwing around its about good vibes having fun and putting wakeboarding to sleep _________________ ..........Oak.......... |

fastgreens, You said to get a 40" with grip. But I ready that they're are foam boards with still rods or something? What is that? _________________ -IndyColt42- |
