Hi out there! I'm new in this forum. My name is natalie
I wanted some advice on what size of wakeskate to buy!. I'm 66.inches in height and normal build.
I want to buy the SST model wakeskate...but I don't know what size to buy...
I could ride both boards..but I would like to know which one will be easier for me...maybe the 40.5 is a bit to small.
Thank youu!  |

From what I've seen it really doesn't matter. If it were me I'd go with the 40.5 which I don't think is at all small for your build. Many people around here bigger then you ride the 38-39" integs. |

40.5 > 42 in this case. _________________ Fake it till you make it.

thank you all very much for your advice!
Scott, I was just converting your info into centimetres and kilos and your speed and I think you have totally convinced me....
I will go for the 40.5 I ride in a cable ski in Spain and the speed is less than 20mph...
Thank you!!!
