Hydroslide Black Widow Wakeboard, Black, 56-Inch

Let me start off by saying this is my first time on a wakeboard so I have no frame of reference as to the feel and weight of a professional board. However, this wakeboard was great fun. If someone is looking at a wakeboard in this price range I would hope that person is not looking for a pro wakeboard and then judging this board harshly for not being up to par. This is a great board for the money. I spent less than $180 for a complete board, mine had the fins and the bindings look like they can handle a couple seasons. So far I have only taken it out once and was able to ride it with no problems. I would recommend this to anyone looking to get into wakeboarding. As the season progresses I will update with the longevity of the bindings as others have stated the bindings are terrible.

This is a great beginner board for the money! Would highly recommend, fit is good for my sons that wear a 12 size shoe (requires some tugging to get foot in) and fits me as well (size 13). I was able to adjust it to someone with a size 8 as well.

Overall great beginner board. My feet are small so only complaint is it's not quite as easy to tighten down as some of the other boards I have used in the past. Fits the bigger guys just fine but would like to see easier pull downs for tightening for smaller feet. Requires no tools for adjustment of alignment which was a big plus. Could move boots closer together for smaller people and farther apart for the guys all on the boat.

The binding bolts loosen very easy. On the 4th time using it one of the bolts fell out and sunk to the bottom of the lake so the board is now useless unless I can find a replacement which is proving to be very difficult. We need the manufacturer to return our calls!

My family and I planned a trip to the lake and were excited to try out the board. Very nice board and boots. We had to return it because our hands became filled with fiberglass as soon as we were getting ready to use it. All edges were rough with fiberglass exposed. Very disappointed. It would have been a perfect board if it wasn’t for the defect.
