Looking for a wakeboard recommendation for my son.

He is 13 about 5' 3" and 105 lbs. He has been wakeboarding for 2 years and has a very aggressive style. Not much finesse, but all heart, go-for-broke attitude. He is also an avid skateboarder.

He is able to do all sorts of grabs wake to wake. And has been working on his backroll and 180. He is close but hasn't landed either one yet.

His current board is a Hydroslide Axis (cheap board I bought for the kids to learn on). This board is heavy and has a continuous rocker.

His older brother has a 2007 136 LF Witness. He has tried this board but says he likes the Hydroslide better. But, I think it is just because he is more used to it.

I have been through the Board Wizard and the wakeboard reviews here on Wakeworld. I have also been watching The daily "Smokin Deals" on Boarders Best Buy but I don't know enough about boards to pull the trigger on anything.

Specific board recommendations would be great but even style of rocker, size, fins, etc would be appreciated.

I have LF Transit bindings for him, so I really just need the board.

Thanks
