Wakesurfer?

[Troez]

Hey guys,

I'm trying to convince the rest of my committee to get a wakesurfer for the club, just not sure which one to get if they say yes :P

I dont think anyone in the club has done it before so we'd need a board that's easy to learn on, but also can be used for years to come and by people who want to attempt tricks and stuff...

Cheers...

you every get your wakesurfer?

Nah mate we didn't. Really sucks, the weathers been really crap down here appart from the last week so we havent been able to get our boat out on the water. loads of the members have kinda lost interest, dont blame em really. we've had a few trips up to the cable at WMwake but i really wanted to have a go at wakesurfing... ah well...

get a bic shortboard mate 6'7 £100 or there abouts maybe 130. way better than getting a wake specific one and they last alot longer.

sorry i gunna have to dissagree with ya their NM. The broadcast by hyperlite in my opinion is one of the best wakesurfers out there and will out perform a surf board any day.
not sure on price and durability but surf boards on the boat are too big and alot harder to manouver on the small wave.

or you can get a 5 foot skimm board and put some fins on it, also very fun board!!

yeah but wakesurf specific boards are like over £200 so do you get double the fun? on the surf board with the extra volume you can ride a lot further back and so you get to ride more of the wake. plus if you are a slightly heavier person then volume is good! we have got the blue hyperlite one to be fair and i do know what you mean but they are way over priced for a toy.
