    I'm guessing James, that your dad drove the boat?

    No... Kendra has actually gotten pretty good at it.

    After doing some research, I think I've settled on the CWB Faction 144cm - http://www.evo.com/outlet/wakeboards...-138-front.jpg
    The main one that I saw recommended for bigger guys was the Hyperlite Marek, but it's more money than I want to spend on my first board. A few other people recommended the CWB Faction, so I think it will be a good board to start with. Anyone else have any other recommendations?

    Nice skills Procter!!! I told my better half last night she needs to learn to drive the boat so I can at least wakeboard-then maybe get her into being able to pull me a a slalom. Years ago I tried and had her drive the boat and pointed out a buoy to pretend was me that she needed to pick up. Well she ran right over the buoy and killed me-kind of ended the lesson.

    Smart girl - scare the hell out of you so she won't ever have to drive the boat.

    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.
