Default Looking for a wakeboard...

I'm looking for a wakeboard for me (5ft 5) and my dad and brother (6ft) to use but haven't really got a clue where to start. We are all beginner/intermediate level and are towed behind a jet bike, so the wake isn't very big.

We've been using one of the old-school wakeboards but would like something a bit more modern!

Anyone have any suggestions?
Or second hand offers?

Thanks

I would reccomend something fairly stable, more old school in shape, say the Era, or State. Something with nice molded fins, with an optional centre. The era is changing shape next year to a newer design, so might try this year or last years before they change it, rides alot like an older premier (say the 03/04).

Dont rush into anything ask loads of peoples advice, and have a long chat with stores, most of them know their stuff!

Go for a decent beginner to intermediate board (this will help you to both progress much quicker) and spend as much as you can on decent bindings that will fit both of you.

Speak to Lesley who posted earlier as she will give you so great information and advice, i have bought all my boards through them.
