I need a little help. The wife of a friend of mine wants to surprise him with his own set up for Christmas, and I was wondering what those of you here might recommend. He is a fairly new rider, and just started riding midway through the summer of 2013. He has been riding my Murray Nova 142 and has progressed fairly well. This past summer he was very close to W2W heelside and even landed a few 1 wake 180's. He is a big guy (probably 6' maybe 6'-1" and probably 225 lbs) so definitely would not need to go below a 142. But, he has never done any other board sports, so I can't really say whether or not he would prefer a looser or more locked in board. And he has only ever ridden my Murray.

I don't think that she wants to spend a lot of $ so I was going to try and help her find a good deal on a last year's model or something. I was just curious as to what suggestions you might have as I have only ever owned Hyperlite gear (I have ridden a few other boards, but always liked mine better)
