Hyperlite Motive 144 is what I teach people on. I have never had an issue getting anyone up on this board. I will never get rid of it. Everyone I teach how to wakeboard haven gotten up and have the best time of their lives.
I personally just picked up a Liquid Force Trip 138 for my girlfriend, haven't used it yet, but I have herd great things about this board.
I am 6' and 260lbs. I ride a cwb transcend 142. I've never had an issue and personally like the feeling of the 142.
I am no pro, I just enjoy spending time out on the lake with friends and family sharing some good laughs together. I am not looking to get sponsored, lol...
On bindings, spend the extra bucks on something really comfortable, because it makes a day and night difference in your riding... Just speaking from experience.
Enjoy and have fun with your family...
