Good Choice for 1st board?

[nichollb]

Hello

I bought a boat and now am looking for my first board. I have been out on a friends boat a dozen or so times riding a 142 Liquid force for beginners. I would describe myself as an aspiring intermediate, I have no trouble getting up and criss cross both sides of the wake but have yet to seek any air.

Both of these look like good boards for the $$. I don't think that I want anything to aggressive but I know I will regret a true beginner board.

I am in my mid 30's 6'4 210

any thoughts on either of these?

The Ronix One is the exact same board I ride and I love it. Handles very well, pops well and best of all, it is one of the lightest boards out there which makes getting air very easy even for a beginner. Spin tricks are also easy with it. I am biased to it, but if it fits your budget, you wont get a better board!
