Wakesurf Boards

[GW@vineyardlake]

I've been surfing with friends and family since 2016 on a 2008 Mobius LSV and we have a Hyper-Lite Brian Grubb (hybrid-type) and a Phase 5 Diamond CL54 (skim-type), what can anyone recommend for a surf-type board for mostly male riders? Also, any other boards regardless of type that are "must haves"?

I'd tell ya to get a soulcraft. I have 3 and love them but you will get as many opinions as posts in this thread. see if you can find someone local that has a couple to try out. ronix makes a decent entry surf style and if you are sharing with others might be a little cheaper pill to swallow to let others thrash on it. I liked the koal I had. left it with a guy in wisconsin when I moved and bet they are still riding it today.

good luck.

My favorite surf style board is the Phase 5 Aku. So fast and super agile. It was superseded by the Ahi, nut every now and then you will see a used one for sale. Second favorite surf style is the Inland Surfer James Walker Pro, again fast and agile but not as fast as the Aku.

Thanks; anyone have any experience with Chaos boards?

heard good things about chaos but no real world experience.

best thing I ever did to my soulcraft I ride most of the time are fins. whatever board you buy, pony up for a set of f4 blakstiks. they made a night and day difference in the speed and feel of the board. spendy but well worth the price imo.....

Lots. Excellent boards. Have owned 5 of them (I think). Currently have 3.

Second the fins comment. I have found some templates more pleasing than the BlackStix F4 for sure, but those are also solid. Chaos also makes a fin template that is stellar as well.
