Hi all, I'm looking at getting my own wakesurf. I may get is a gift and the person that is going to give it to me would rather have me choose one that is either a HL or Ronix or LF. But I am also open to other brand suggestions. I am a beginner looking to progress, I've only been out wakesurfing about 10 times. So far I can drift back and gain speed, do some (still lame) lipslides and the last time I went out I landed a 360 (yay!). The board I ride now is a friend's LF custom Thruster. I like the board, I like that it is very light and that the rails don't catch easily. I've also ridden a HL one that had very sharp rails all over and they were always digging too much in the water. Besides that, I really don't know much, as I said I'm a beginner and can't really tell what would make a difference in a board. I want something light, easy to maneuver and with which I'll be able to learn all sorts of tricks, airs, shuvits, spins, etc. but also a board that will still give me that relaxing surf feel. So far, the one I like the most (out of all the 3 brands) is the LF custom, but I want to know what is the difference between that one and the thruster, and is that difference really worth the extra cash? I am a small girl, about 5'2" and around 95 lbs. I was looking into Calibrated but heard they weren't selling wakesurfers now... I also looked into Phase 5 but I have absolutely no idea what would be a good board for me. Thank you for reading all this and for any help you can give me.
