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.

DescriptionAustralia’s finest Hayley Smith worked with wakeboard coach Mike Ferraro, who arguably knows more about fluid dynamics than anybody out on the Ronix Quarter Til Midnight 2011 Womens Wakeboard.
They worked on a new shape for varying abilities, and styles to determine the universal characteristics a rider needs and blended them into one shape. The result is a new Smooth Flex constructed shape, which is being referred to as the best board Mike has created to date.
This board has a 3-stage lift in the centre, with a continuous outer rail. A rider can still get that explosive more vertical lift, but the faster outer rails push the board into the rider. You feel the speed of continuous and the float of 3-stage.
If a rider comes in with a lot of angle, the board is reacting more to the outer continuous profile - feeling the added speed, coming in and flatting the board out as you hit the wake - the 3-stage kicks in.
This is a series you don’t have to really stand on to create a progressive cut from the sharp / hard edge on the tip / tail of the board, outside of the stance. The rounder radius bevel in the center of the board, inside of the stance, creates forgiveness.
A legendary new all purpose shape from smooth / low maintenance carves, to wide open high speed cuts behind the boat, versatility on the cable for air tricks and our super wide stance option for extra board control at the cable.
Features:
Sharper Centered Rails: Creating a quicker edge transfer that is more reliable in choppier water conditions, blends to a more vertical sidewall in the tip / tail allowing the board to ride higher on the water with more glide speed.
4 x Flutes in the Tip / Tail: Designed for a cable rider to aid the traction of the fins with a cleaner lift with less pressure on air tricks allowing the board to flick out of the water and away easier.
2 x Traction Channels in the middle: Helps with acceleration through a turn and push the rider into the wake.
4x Traction Channels in Tip / Tail: Creating a more stable feel on landings.
Versatile Rocker Line: Depending on how a rider edges into the wake it will feel like a continuous with easy transitions and soft landings or a 3 stage rocker board and a more upright pop!
Smooth Flex: A female-specific construction that flexes the way a girl needs it to.
Sintered Base: The most durable non-stick compound Ronix have ever tested on rails without loosing any glide speed on the water. This exclusive base was formulated from a powder by heating the material in a sintering furnace below it's melting point until the particles bond to one another.
A higher purity of a compound that preserves it's bond over time. No obstacle is safe at cable parks with the Ronix jib friendly material!
Cable Speed Design: Most surface area, and a sharper rail optimized for slower cable speeds.
Thin Profile: Reducing Swing Weight with a unique 45° angled tip / tail profile.
Variable Bevel: Rounder radius bevel on the inside of a riders stance blending to a sharp bevel on the outside for a clean progressive edge transfer and hold.
Krypto Cable:
Combined with Ronix's monocoque laminated glass, this cable makes the sidewalls of the board the strongest part of the board.
The strength of the Mod Pour and Carbon R3 technology means a board will want to maintain its intended rocker line through a transition, trough and landing impact beyond a conventional layup. A torsionally stiffer ride allowing the board to create more angle and speed out of a turn by preventing the profile from flexing side to side.
