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 the wind there is not enough wind for kiteboarding. Your skills are already honed for wakeboarding and you will have no trouble gettng to grips with 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 instead of go
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 2011 Syn Womens Wakeboard is the shape of choice for It Girls team and is proven on tour and cables & sliders.
The Hyperlite Syn Womens 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.
Features:
Biolite Core: A specially formulated blend that has reduced the finished weight of the board by nearly 1/3rd and improved the feel of characteristics over a traditional core.
Continuous Rocker: A constant fluid arc that reflects more of the actual transition of the boat wake allowing the rider to hold their speed with a more fluid predictable lift every time. This rocker gives the rider a smooth, forgiving release off the wake and more of a defined arc in the air.
2 x Molded-In 0.7"
Poly A-Wing Fins:
Why go to 6"
