Proper Board Size

March 28, 2009

The proper size of your wakeboard is very important. Too big a board, and you’ll struggle to get on edge, or have trouble spinning.  Too small a board, and it’ll be a fight against the boat to even get up. One of the most important and very first questions one should ask themselves before buying a wakeboard is what is the right Wakeboard size for me?

Once again, we here at Marine Products are here to help you out.  We’d like to thank everyone from Liquid Force for putting this size chart together.  The proper board size for someone is based SOLELY on weight.

This is probably the best size chart that i’ve personally ever seen. Riding a board that’s the right size for you is going to improve both your comfort and riding as soon as you make the change.

People often aske about the width of wakeboards, and the effects that the differents widths will have on their riding.

The wider a wakeboard is, the more surface area is going to hit the wake.  A wide wakeboard is going to produce a greater pop off of the wake, where as a narrower wakeboard will help get on edge a lot faster.
