Hey guys, I'm a fairly new wakeboarder, i am just getting comfortable jumping so I still consider myself a beginner. I am 6 ft. and 170 lbs and I've been seeing multiple different size charts on several different websites. I was looking at the 2013 hyperlite forefront 144, and also a 2013 CWB Pure 141, my main question is what size would suit me best.

Thanks, Erik

Both of those won't be too big. A board 140+ considering your height will serve you well.

You've got your answer. Just make sure your stance is comfortable.

Companies vary on sizes and the riders weight. I called Bart's water sports for my first board and they made sure the fit was perfect for me.

I have a 2011 Faction 144 I would let go pretty cheap.....and in great shape!!!

I like my Marius 141 better so the Faction is wall art in the garage.....lol
