Liquid Force Anthem for $99

If you're finding a wakeboard setup for less than that it's probably a steaming pile of sh*t from Overtons.

why do you expect 50 bucks like a skate deck?

-=AlexXx=-, you just have a tendency to overexaggerate, dont look at it as anything more then that.

feuerfrei, I started on an O'Brien Traffic w/ grip I picked it up on ebay for like $60 shipped and rode the $hit out of it my first season and then sold it to a buddy which still rides it. If you're just wanting to get a good cheap board to try it out and see if you like skating I would recommend picking one up and then when you outgrow the board which you will I would check out the New, Oak, Devotid, and Sattelyte decks for a nice wood concave or bi-level. I ride a New Mogley and 2 Devotid bi-levels a Union and a Passion and imo all 3 are phucking sick. So it's just personal preference but since you have never wakeskated you don't have much personal preference so I'd grab a flat deck with grip and see what happens . . . . . Just my .02

you should get an integrity dada, most likely the best flat deck on the market, plus its really not expensive, and it will last forever

Just buy a cheap skate and go with it. Anything you choose will be fine for your first time and you can always buy a better skate to suit your needs once you get a good feel for the sport.

feuerfrei, your asking a bunch of different people what they like and everyone here likes different things. thats why your getting nowhere. chances are no matter what skate you get your gonna enjoy it because you know no difference. seems to me 100 for the NEW is a pretty darn good deal

i ride on a 08 armada sometimes. its a good beginners board but not much more i dont think. maybe its just me. i dont like the rocker and i prefer something with a bigger kicktail. also it has eva foam. i prefer griptape. but its fun for surface tricks and shizzle.

just my $.02
