hi and welcome. Don't worry about a particular brand of boards, get to a cable or good boat lake with a pro-shop and try out a bunch of boards to see what you like the best. There are more popular brands but it's like Burton for snowboarding - just because you know their name doesn't mean it will work for you.
For boats you should look into the new 'Wakesport' line from Fletcher boats. They're a british company who have been around forever and this is their first wakeboard specific boat that is aimed at people who want a good wake and a fun boat for the family at the same time. They're really good and well worth checking out. hope that helps
