X-Star rider trying my Tige says there's a hole grabbing front of board

In other words... dont piss her off.. she can take you.

No problems dudes! I'm a buff 135, all muscle - all the girls on the boat wish they could copy my swagger!
I'm riding the CWB ride. My husband is 180 and riding it too and it looks like it's sitting deep with him on it, but sits great for me.
I did ride behind the X-Star and rode a green and white hyperlite board (sorry - not sure the name). It was wider and longer than mine and I actually managed alot better on that ride.

yeah, maybe less speed. Before I got the "x-star pros" on board, my husband and I were running at 10.4, taps 4, ballast full. I managed decent, but I know it was a big wave! Lots of great advice folks! Love this website! You guys rock!

Thats where the Tige rep suggested we set ours.

I think I can hang wich ya'll!! And what do ya know, this morning I'm down to 132, the summer workouts on the boat's payin' off. Fightin' weight now!

Well, we had some good rides this weekend. The X-star cousin tried it again with his board and he did great - loved the huge wave, quit gripping bout the "hole". I think the advice on my cwb board helped - my husband, myself and our kids are still learning, but doing better!
Here's finally some pics (hopefully I'm doing this right!)
My cousin surfin, me and then my daughter wakeboarding.

And my cousin rides goofy on left side of boat with his shades and his beer! He ain't right!

[bigdaddy_houseboater]

I dont see a hole.. and THAT is a BIG EFFIN WAKE!

[auburntigegal]

Yeah, he just wasn't used to my board (last weekend)and then that little X-Star wake had him all wimped out on his first ride on the Tige!

[bigdaddy_houseboater]

The hole was in his head.. lol...
Sweet riding with a beer tho. Bet he's not complaining anymore.

[auburntigegal]

Here's one more good pic. He'd finished his beer and was getting more serious!!

I have that CWB board. It is easy for beginners to learn on for sure. I just cant seem to get a 360 on it to save my life. Every time I turn in to the wake sharp the fins startto track and I lose my rotation.

[auburntigegal]

Well, we are doing much better now. Riding that green and white hyperlyte board seems easier than the CWB ride. My whole family (beginners) and my cousin (advanced) are all loving the wake now. I see what you say about the CWB being a slow board. His hyperlyte is bigger and faster. We're all going without the rope (for a little while anyway). Thanks for all the advice! Running with both front ballast filled, back left filled, speed at 11.0, taps at 4.0. Getting an awesome wake!

Is the green and white board a hyperlite Broadcast?
