    Anyone know anything about wakeboards?

    Looking to pick up a wakeboard. Any particular brand/model I should look for? What features do I need to look for? I'll probably troll Craigslist to try to find a used one before buying a brand new one.

    I know enough to know that I only need a basic board at my skill level... and more importantly ..... my age.

    Yes, that is the brand I prefer. Though more for kneeboarding. I really haven't done alot of wakeboarding and not real sure what brand the two are that I have since a friend gave them to me. I would suggest you contact the other guy with a piece of metal in his head who got it from wakeboarding-give Mark Smith a call at Eagle Marine in Fort Worth.

    Luckily he didn't have one at Hallett or a 150 ft rope-though if the rope would have been there maybe Hallett's pond would have seen some kids ski's.

    There's that wakeboarding place next to Cresson. I've broken so many damn igloo coolers that I should have a spare lid or two I could bring...

    Just saw this. I'm out of town but you can call Matt at 817-246-4151. Tell him you race with me, he works for me and also reps a few board lines.

    Ended up ordering a board before you posted, Mark. I'll give you a ring if I buy another board or bindings at some point.

    You should wakeboard more... maybe sell something and buy your own boat. But do come hang out on Saturaday nights.
