Wake / Kite Binding Stance: When mounting your bindings on a wake or kiteboard, it is important to start off with a wider stance when learning, and then adjust it once you are more comfortable on the board. The wider stance gives you more stability and most people will always ride with their feet angled outward, also known as a duck stance.
If you feel pressure on either or both knees, or on the outside of your feet, the chances are your feet are parallel or straight on the board and you need to angle them outward a little more.
Try wakeboarding or kiteboarding with several different stances to find out what works best for you.
How is a kiteboard different from a wakeboard? Wakeboarding is a great way to keep up with your skills when there is not enough wind for kiteboarding. Your skills are already honed for wakeboarding and you will have no trouble getting up and moving.
Kiteboards may look the same but they are very different from one another. A kiteboard has a concave bottom unlike the convex bottom of a wake board. Kiteboarders constantly ride on the edge of their board a lot like a snowboarder carving down a slope. The concave bottom helps kiteboarders to cut into the water holding a better edge, and helping them to stay upwind and are also designed to handle waves.
Wakeboards are designed to be thrusted off the tail, riding behind a a boat or cable e at higher speeds and typically on flat water. They are typically heavier due to the bindings but act as a counter weight aiding rotation speed in the quick jumps off a boat /cable wake. Their stiffness and rocker are designed for hard landings.
For beginners a wakeboard with a lot of rocker will feel loose, but it will teach you how to edge correctly rather than relying heavily on fins. In contrast, less rocker allows wakeboards to move faster, hook up better and become more aggressive. The wakeboard rider can be more aggressive with his turns and really edge hard through the wake.
If you’re the type of wakeboard / kiteboarder who loves to turn fast, go big and land out in the flats but you ride a bigger, steeper wake, try to find wakeboards with medium rocker. The slower, smoother and more wake-to-wake your style is, the more rocker you need in your wakeboards.

DescriptionThe Hyperlite Marek Nova series is built to be the fastest, most responsive ride in the Hyperlite lineup. With four 9-degree angled fins set just inside a two-stage channel, the Marek initiates an edge with little effort.
The tip-to-tail step-down rail assures solid edge holds all the way through the wake. Combine these features with the abrupt continuous rocker line and you have a board with speed and pop like nothing else on the market.
Internally the Hyperlite Marek Nova series is built with a fully machined Nova core, which is the lightest, snappiest core Hyperlite has ever offered. To make sure this series stood up to the punishment - Hyperlite Rider Rusty Malinoski can hand out, it is inlayed with strategically placed carbon torsion zones for maximum durability and responsiveness.
The Hyperlite Marek Nova wakeboard also utilizes Hyperlite's Strata mounting system which allows for infinite stance options and micro adjustability. For years, wakeboards have limited riders to choose their stance in 1” increments. The new Strata system completely shatters these limitations. A rider can now chose any point on the Strata’s 13” axis to secure their boot, allowing for the ultimate in customized set-ups. The Strata system's full fiberglass housing creates the ultimate laminate bond giving them the highest insert pull strength in the industry. The Strata mounting system is also reinforced underfoot. The aluminum track extrusion creates a spine like effect and helps to maintain the boards rocker line off the wake for maximum pop. The added structural integrity created by the Strata system keeps a board from fatiguing as quickly as traditional constructions creating better, longer lasting products.
Features:
Infinite stance options and micro adjustment: For years wakeboards have limited riders to choose their stance in 1" increments. The new Strata system completely shatters these limitations. A rider can now chose any point on the Strata's 13" axis to secure their boot, allowing for the ultimate in customized set-up's.
Enduro Base: Enduro Base helps to prolong the life of your deck without sacrificing the ride. This exclusive base is a blend of the lightest most durable materials we offer. Enduro Base is great for keeping your board circling the local cable but also performs equally as well behind the boat.
Strongest possible bond: Because of the Strata systems full fiberglass housing it creates the ultimate laminate bond. This means the highest insert pull strength in the industry.
Added board performance:
Added durability and
board life:
4 x Removeable Poly
A-Wing Fins:

Why go to 6"
Wakeboard Boot Plates?
* Riders can choose to use both inside and outside mounting locations on Strata track boards. Four additional Strata track t-nuts will be required.
You have 6”
binding plates and a wake or board with an 8” hole pattern.
Are they compatible?
