I think that I am the only person that is 6 foot 9 and wakeboards. I am not that good. I was just wondering if there are any tall wakeboarders or if I am the only one.

Derick, you are 6"9 235 and you are only 18 years old? Geeezo let me be your manager and we will get you into the WWF! I will get you in the weight room pump you up and call you the Phenom or the terminator the possibalities are endless lol
I also have three brothers that wakeboard. my two older brothers are 6'9" and 340 and 6'6". my youngest brother is 6'8". My mom and dad wakeboard too. She is 6'3" and my dad is 6'1". I think that I have the biggest wakeboard family.
Man, you should ride a bigger board. High center of gravity and probably a little top heavy, so longer helps with landings. I felt a big difference going from a 140 to a 144, and I'm about to try and get on a 147 and see how that feels...
Derick, if you ever learn raley's they are going to be HUGE!!! You are already starting at about 7 feet off the water! Do you ride with a wider handle? If not the standard 15" wakeboard handle must feel small.
