In the market for a new wakeboard. I currently ride a Ronix Vault. I am a novice to intermediate rider. I can jump wake to wake be no spins or inverts. What would be a good board recommendation? Here are the 2 I was considering but am open to options. Also closed toe or open toe bindings?
Hyperlite Murray
Ronix Parks
Hi Jhutch,
Pretty difficult to recommend a particular board as each person’s riding styles differ and different boards offer different attributes. The Murray is a nice board for sure though. I believe it has a continuous rocker and with that center spine it softens out the landings. The new boards are so much lighter now so don’t be afraid to buy a board at the longer lengths for your weight range. It will really help with getting lots of pop off the wake. Closed toe bindings are going to give you a better feel with your board and make you feel more connected to it but none of your buddies will be able to use it (probably a good thing).
If you are at near $700 for the Parks, for $100 more get the Ronix RXT and ride it forever.

Whats wrong with the vault? Thats the board I have and I know the board isnt holding me back, its all in my head!
The Murray is a sweet board. I’m riding it currently and if you like a fast free ride then I recommend. If you want a true 3-stage then look at something else.
For sure get some closed toe bindings on the Vault first before looking at different boards. If you want to step it up, Thehouse.com or evo.com has a last year model Hyperlite Riot bio on sale, it is way better than either board you listed, I have been on all 3. Good luck, start spinning and going inverted!!Quote:

The trend is one size bigger on the board. The Murray is an awesome board too!
Most dealers will let you demo. Always good to try before buying.
