Hey guys. So I'm 6 4 and 300lb. I've never tried to wake board until the other day. I didn't have much trouble getting up but still haven't mastered turning the board and putting the rope to my lead hip, it was late in the day and it was time to go home.
Anyways I was with a friend and he has a 140 board. I read that I probably need a 145+ but there is a lot of conflicting info. I have a stash of lake junk and have 2 boards, a BFA 145 and some gator board that's a 132. I've never tried to ride either, but I'm gonna!
My questions are is either worth using?
Neither has fins, do I need a rear fin?
The BFA has these sandle style boots, are they safe or do they need upgraded?
Keep in mind I won't be doing any flips anytime soon, probably never. I'd just like to be able to cut up some. Maybe a summer goal would be to jump the wake by the time it gets cold.
