• Best For: Park
• Rocker Type: Continuous

Board sport athletes will get a kick out of how similar the Hyperlite Pleasure rides to a snowboard or longboard skateboard. It falls around the mid-range mark in flexibility and is forgiving on turns and landings thanks to its exaggerated beveled edges. The lightweight woodlite core adds extra boost for jumps. Beginners shouldn’t be put off by its nontraditional elongated shape, and intermediate to advanced riders will enjoy how fast and responsive the board is underfoot. Because of its narrow profile, size up if you’re in between length recommendations.

Designed with beginner wakeboarders in mind, the Connelly Pure is an affordable and reliable board that can take you on your journey from popping up to popping off the wake. This package includes Connelly Venza bindings with an open toe boot and thick comfortable foot bed. The board has a three-stage rocker that rides a bit on the slow side and a removable center fin to help stabilize the board. Because it can also handle jumps and looser riding with the fins out, this is an ideal board for families who share one board and have a mix of skill levels within the group.
