Good wakeboard for kids

[Kells]

Hello all,

Just checking if anyone has advice on a wakeboard for kids.

I've got a 5 year old daughter, a 3 yr old daughter, and one on the way!  I'm looking for something that will hold up for all 3 kids.

I think I've narrowed it down to a couple setups:

Hyperlite:

CWB:

I think the pontoon is a great platform to start them (AND ME!) in getting into wakeboarding.  

Any advice is appreciated!

At that age either one will do. You could even check out local sporting goods stores next month for end of summer deals.

Get one with a hook for sure. Ours has fins that retract. Down for a stable ride, up for tricks and going sideways.

Ha ha. Oops. Was thinking kneeboarding not wakeboard. A kneeboard is usable at a much earlier age.... My kid is 11 and I'm only just thinking about wake boards for him. Not sure id put a kid younger than 8 on even a kneeboard though. Depends on the kids strength and bravery though.
