You want your kid to love wakeboarding as much as you do, so you don't want to get him just a scaled down adult board. Instead you want to get him a board that's been designed especially for him, like the Hyperlite Motive Jr. With it's continuous rocker providing a mellow turn, and predictable pop off the wake, the Motive Jr. is a perfect board for a kid's first time behind a boat, but it carries enough speed into the wake in order to grow with him as his skills progress. This is paired with the Sprint Kids binding, with a rear flex zone and soft EVA heel for comfort, and an adjustable EVA toe piece is coupled with a quick cinch lace zone which makes entry an exit a breeze. Get the grommets excited about wakeboarding from the first time with the Divine Jr. wakeboard and Sprint Kids binding.
