Key Specs
Versatility is the name of the game for the Ronix Quarter ’Til Midnight thanks to its hybrid three-stage continuous rocker—where the tip and tail are not as curved as a traditional three-stage rocker. If you’re a beginner looking for a wakeboard you won’t quickly outgrow, this is a top contender. Tracking is predictable, and turns on this board are smooth. When it’s time to launch off the wake, the board can handle that, too. Landings are surprisingly comfortable.
Key Specs
The signature model of pro Rusty “Bone Crusher” Malinoski, the Hyperlite Rusty Pro shows that wide doesn’t have to be synonymous with heavy when it comes to wakeboards. Malinoski collaborated on the design to help Hyperlite develop a lighter board-to-size ratio. This board is a great pick for experienced wakeboarders who might feel under-gunned on some of the standard models out there. It tracks predictably, boosts easily off the wake, and offers a soft landing even if you’re a larger rider—like Rusty. The latest model has integrated fiberglass layers for added durability on rough landings.
