Default I am brand spanking new and need help.

I will be buying my first wakeboard ever in a couple of months so i would like some help sizing and stuff.

here is my set up

1990 Larson 170 All-American with 140 HP I/O

I am 6'1" 230lbs pretty big build.

BUT, i need the board to also be able to let my other family members and girlfriend ride. she is the smallest (5'2" 115lbs)

what boards would be good. Boot size to fit her feet AND mine? (i wear mens 11.5 and she wears womans 8)

Any help? I also need some prices for some stuff!

pm and post please! and hurry.

You are going to have to buy 2 boards or get a bigger girlfriend!
Go to wakeworld.com for sizing of boards then go to a lake where you can try out demo boards . demo as many as you can .its the only way to find the right boards for you and your girlfriend. if a board/bindings are the wrong size it will be dangerous.
