Phase5 Diamond vs. Danielo Pro
 

Hey guys,

Im trying to pick between Phase5 Danielo pro (52'') and the diamond (51'').
It's my second year wakesurfing. I'm weigh about 110 pounds and am 5'5.

Last season I used my friends Phase5 Oath (53') and it seemed a bit large sometimes....

A 46-48" board will be much more responsive for you.

like what?

Phase 5 makes the Diamond Luv in a 48" which is the same shape as the Danielo Diamond
Victoria makes the Factor and the Factor PCX in a 48" size. And they make the Gremlin in a 46" size which would be really good for you. It has a ton of performance and is actually the right size for you.
You will get a lot more out of a board that is the right size. You will be able to progress quicker which makes riding more fun.

anyone else have a view on this?

I'm 5'8" 165 and even I find boards 51" and up too large (when it comes to skimboards). You are smaller than most wakesurfers, and you will appreciate riding a board that is the proper size. Wakesurf boards cost a lot of money, and it would suck to spend that money on something that doesnt work for you like it should.

Again, if you are set on a phase 5, the Diamond Luv is a great shape and will work better than the 51 regular diamond.

Luckily more companies are starting to make smaller boards. Not everyone is 6 foot tall and 200 lbs
