I remember when I first started riding having to have a boys board as there was such little choice for girls wake boards. Over the years I’ve seen the huge growth in women’s wakeboarding and this is really reflected in the choice of boards we have nowadays. If you’re thinking of buying a new board this spring, be sure to check out this awesome guide put together by the gals at Throw It Down
Wakestock 2011… ask anyone who went and I’m sure they will agree, it was the best ever! Amazing weather, near-perfect water conditions and a great all round vibe meant that it was truly a weekend to remember. Continue reading →
Hey everyone, check out my awesome new setup from Hyperlite! I’ve been riding this awesome setup for about 3 years now and absolutely love it!
The Syn carries awesome speed into the wake and has all the pop you need. With a variable edge design which rolls from soft between your feet to a sharp cupped rail tip and tail, this board is as quick and responsive as they come. A new feature that strays from traditional Hyperlite shapes however is the Syn’s shorter curved molded in fins. Ending almost two inches from the tip and tail of the board, its just enough fin to know its there and working but nothing to delay release off the wake.

The Syn boots have always been ace, but this year they are the best ever! No exaggeration, they are the best bindings I’ve ever had! Designed from the ground up to fit and function for ladies looking to take their riding to the next level, the new Syn has reduced internal volume and a lower cuff to accurately fit a women’s foot and calf. The dual Quick Cinch lace system also allows for fine tuning of boot tension between the upper and lower zones. All of these features are wrapped up on our new Low Pro plate system which puts the rider closer to the deck of the board for maximum feel and control.
Check out this video from Hyperlite, which really explains why the ladies range this year is so ace! Stoked to be part of the team
