I am somewhat new to the sport and want to get a new board but not sure what to buy. I am 5'11 215. What would be the best board for me? I learn fast.

For beginners I recommend a board with molded side fins, i think they are the single greatest invention ever. Plus they allow you to progress and eventually remove the middle fins at your leisure. At your weight I'd get a board over 140 CM. Also most of the beginner boards are pro boards from a couple years back so don't worry about advancing too fast, heck CWB rider Andrew Adkison rode a pro event in Singapore using the most beginner board in the line-up, he also won his heat. Have fun & welcome to the brother(& sister)hood that is wakeboarding!

CWB Kink or Pure. Both are previous pro models priced for entry level. I rode the kink shape for years.

I started last year on a CWB Factor 144, based on the tattoo shape. It was a great beginner board. I am about your same size and the board rode high in the water and with the center fins out it allows you to progress quickly.
