If he was ever going to ride the cable, the Hyperlite Webb board is a pretty good crossover and comes in a 144. But like the others said, the Marek and Faction are tops for the big guys. I rode the...

Definitely longer! I'm about 160 pounds and ride 138s but wish I was riding a bigger size. Especially at cable where the slower speed benefits from more surface area. I've been on a bigger board kick...

I wear a long sleeve spring and it is incredibly comfortable. Protection for the boys and just enough warmth to keep you toasty for the early morning rides. Also keeps the wind off your arms. To me a...

From the Hyperlite/Byerly line my two favorite boards are the Franchise and the AR1. They ride differently but are both good at what they do. I really like the Franchise on a steep wake because it...

Looks to be on the inside of their little lagoon marina. If memory serves, the boat slips are near where the picture was taken from.

IMO, the Byerly System boot was very similar to the AJ. It has a lower cut but is pretty stiff. Has all the same comfort and performance of the Hyperlite gear.

After riding the JD last year, I am...

Since it sounds like you will be primarily in So-Cal. There are places to ride a wakeboard, one being the Carlsbad Lagoon. Its 15 minutes south of Trestles. If I were you, I'd rent a car in LA, drive...

For just riding I would say the AR1, that board is incredible! The thing is fast, skatey and very poppy. It would do OK at the cable but I like a board with an ABS rail to ensure that your edges stay...

That board does not have any built in (aka molded) fins to speak of. It will be very slippery without any fins on it. It came from the factory with 4 one inch fins. I'd try and find some decent .8"...

Yeah if you are using a fast track with the System bindings you have to use the second set of hardware that comes with the bindings. Using the standard hardware will lead to issues.
