Wakesurfer recommendation?

[SurfgateBob]

Hi all - new to wakesurfing, but am pulling the trigger on an LSV with max ballast & PnP & surfgate. I'm 190#, above average athleticism. Just wondering what folks think the best board for the surfgate might be.

I'm sure this is subjective, so go ahead and be subjective!

This is a great surf board I have never had anyone say they didn't like riding it. The board is good for 200+ so I use this board for all the new bees. By the end of the day I have never had anyone I didn't have riding with no hands on this board. The main reason I bought this board is the material it is made of it want damage easy.(dings)

This is the next level surf board The first board is a Cadillac this board is a Porsche lot more fun but you have to learn to drive it. I love riding both but they are to different worlds and two different style. again this board is hard to dig. The only thing I will say bad about this board is it is to wide to fit in my Samson racks.

I keep talking about the digs because to me surf board are like boats the first one needs to be a learner boat. New people will hit the board on things till they learn how to take care of them. Some boards dig really easy.

I did my home work and this is the board I went with. Still learning to ride it I have a friend that rides very very good and he says it is a great board. Like I said I am still learning to ride it. I can tell you this all these boards are fast.

This is my second pick on the skim style board.

That was my 2 cents now this is everyone else. LOL

Good luck.

Will 2" thick surfboards fit in the new stock racks?? I've gotta believe they will, but want to make sure.

Depends on the riding you want to do. Surf or skim. I have the triple x slasher 5'0" and I love it. But it is definitely surf style for speed,whips,air etc. fins are a little long for spins. If there is a holy grail board out there that is great for both I haven't seen it. I am 5-10 and 190
