    Default Largest board available?

    Okay I want to get into boarding after I got up for the first time I was addicted! So what is the largest board made? I am 6'6" 245 and don't want to mess with a board not really meant for me. any suggestions? I was on a 143 board with crap bindings and still loved it! Help me out guys and gals...............

    Hyperlite Apex in 147
    Hyperlite Marek in 146
    Hyperlite State in 145
    LF Trip in 146

    Malinoski rides the Marek 146 so that should give you some perspective for size..

    Brad, we have 50 hours on the boat now. I have been having a blast, I will maybe get 2 more days in before I head to Montana for Elk season. I am starting to dial in all my stuff and packing for my trip, we have 2 weeks in Montana so it should be a blast! Thanks Z and brad for the advise I will look into the 147 size boards I think it will be easier for me then going smaller. Z what is length rope are you skiing at? I am at 15 off and find myself into the wash of the boat a bit? Is this the case for you too? Its still a decent wake though........

    2000 how do you like it? have you had it long and is it easy to ride? Sounds like your about the same size as me pretty much. What kind of binding are you using?
