At your size you might struggle with the Keg or the big broadcast. The 2016 broadcast is new shape, and this fishier shape is geared towards more surface area and more buoyancy. However, the best thing you could do for learning is just go get a used $100 to $200 surfboard, a shortboard in the 6'4" range, ideally a big boy model. This will be a lot easier to learn to ride on than a wake specific board. That used surfboard will always be worth $100 to $200. Your used Keg or broadcast will be worth less than half you paid for it.
When you are ready to get on a big boy wake surfers, happy to walk you through the best boards out there.
