Hey, I'm a 23 year old male, weigh 170, size 11 shoe, and am 6'1". I recently purchased the HYPERLITE TEMET 138.1
After purchasing this board I have recently noticed the TEMET 142. I like the graphics on this board a lot lot better and I want to know will the change in size be noticable to me at all.. Am i setting myself up for failure? I have gotten a lot of mixed signals... please let me know. i have already orderded online the 138.1 but i really like the graphics on the 142. Please help me.. Which one should I use? I am beginner / intermediate wakeboarder..
i live and wakeboard on a lake.. a pretty big one.. so its generally choppy most of the time.. but there are times when i go on a calm "like glass" lake.. so i dont know what to do... I really like the graphics on the 142.. but have been told i should keep the 138 cuz it fits my weight class and will perform better for me cuz its smaller and not as heavy and clunkier.. i just want a nice board that will perfrom nicley for me.. i like to ride for long periods and jump the wake and try to jump higher sometimes.. like i said im new to then sport... so i dunno.. still in a dilemma?
.. i need all the opinions i can get.. I dont really know how many spins and flips ill be doin just yet.. prolly not too many.. im just learning how to jump the wakes higher and higher and land and not fall.. Which board? PLEASE HELP!! Thanks, DAN
