    Kids Wakeboard, Vision, Nemesis, or Motive???

    I have an 8 and 6 year old that I need to get on a board. I think I have it narrowed down to the Ronix Vison, Liquid Force Nemesis, and Hyperlite Motive. All around the 118-120 length range. I know I could go down to 111 but it seems like they would out grow it to fast. Anyone one else have any suggestions or comments.

    My boy rode the LF Nemesis 124 (without the centre fins) from age 10 - 13 and loved it! Has a very forgiving shape which really helped with his confidence and progression. The 118 would be perfect for your 8yo and fine for your 6yo to learn on and grow into. Here's a few pics of my boy back in the day on the nemesis - and on his LF Harley he rides now:-)

      I came across an Obrien System 119cm this weekend. $219 with bindings. Am I cheap if I go with this or does it really matter at this age?

          I'm looking at a nemesis off Craigslist today. What year and size is yours?
