CHOOSING THE BEST KID'S WAKEBOARD

Kids are naturally attracted to the thrill of learning how to perform tricks such as flips on a wakeboard, and enrolling your son or daughter in lessons allows them to build confidence by taking safe risks.

Your child will also benefit from having a fun way to exercise their body while spending time outside. Yet, choosing the right wakeboard is critical for your kids safety as well as their success.

As you start shopping, use this guide to find the best youngsters wakeboard for their practice sessions.

START WITH A WEIGHT CHART

As a parent, you are used to shopping for your kids clothes and equipment by using their age and height.

However, wakeboards are sized according to a persons weight.

Weight charts are available from most wakeboard manufacturers, and they can serve as a starting point for choosing the right size board.

For example, a child under 85 pounds will usually start with a smaller board that is about 119 centimeters in length.

However, other circumstances may influence the size board you need so use these charts merely as a guide for where to begin when choosing a wakeboard.

CONSIDER YOUR KIDS SKILL LEVEL

Advanced wakeboarders may ignore the chart and choose a board that allows them to perform complicated tricks.

For beginners, however, you will want to choose a board specifically made for youngsters that come with kid-sized boots.

These boards tend to be slightly larger than advanced wakeboards and have more stability that is an asset when kids are still learning how to master balancing on the board.

As they advance in their classes, you may then switch to a lighter board that they will find easier to use as they start to learn tricks.

CHECK OUT THE GRAPHICS

While you are naturally focused on safety, you also dont want to overlook the cool factor that makes your child look forward to their practice sessions.

Once you find the right sized board, see if you can find one in your son or daughters favorite color or with an image that represents their personality.

It may seem silly, but having the coolest wakeboard serves as motivation for youngsters who love showing off their new skills to their family and friends.

TALK TO THEIR INSTRUCTOR

Kids who take wakeboarding lessons at summer camp benefit when they use a similar board at home during the off-season.

Their instructor can provide you with insight into your childs skill level and wakeboarding style that can be used to choose the correct board.

Keeping the boards consistent between home and their practice lessons prevents your child from becoming frustrated when they cannot perform the same tricks with a different board.

As you narrow down your options, make sure to remember that beginners often advance to different boards as they make progress in their lessons.

Therefore, take advantage of the advice given by their instructor regarding the best type of board for their skill level.

With the right board, your youngster will be better able to pull up and stay balanced as they discover the joy that comes with gliding across the water on a beautiful day.
