Question

i am 5'8 and weigh 120 pounds.

Answer 1

i recommend a zap wedge in a large i got mine from skimcity.com and couldn't be happier i don't recommend the victoria foamie because the plastic bottom gets scratched very easily

Answer 2

If your a beginner then go with a Victoria Woody. it can be about 20-50 bucks. thats to see if you like skim boarding but is only good for sand skimming. it doesn't do well in waves. if you have tried skim boarding before then go with a Victoria foamie. i just got a mine and i love it. HUGE difference from a wooden board.

Answer 3

It depends what skill level you are.  If you're a beginner than i suggest that you just get a wooden one that you can find anywhere.  But if you've been wakeboarding for some time than i think you should consider a good zap fiberglass board.  If you're gonna use the skimboard to ride waves than use a 3/4 inch board but if you're gonna skim the shallow parts than you should buy a skimboard that's 1/2 inches thick.  To find out weight and stuff just go to www.zapskimboards.com to find information including weight and height.
