Shaun Murray's video: Can I ride this MASSIVE WAKEBOARD Debunking Big Board Myths

There is a lot of bad information out there about board size and honestly a lot of riders could up their game by getting on a bigger board. So let’s debunk some big board myths as I ride this MASSIVE prototype wakeboard. I received an incredible video from Jason, he is without a doubt the biggest wakeboarder on the Jordanelle Resevoir in Utah. My man is 6’6” and 365lbs! He might be in the running for the biggest wakeboarder in America! Jason is currently riding a Hyperlite State 145cm, I’m half his size and I typically ride a 139cm or 144cm. Jason’s board size is roughly the equivalent to me riding a Murray Junior board (120cm). In my humble opinion, he needs to get out there on a bigger board. But I get it, it’s hard to find the big boards, especially big boards for riding boat. The benefits of a bigger board? With more surface area, you can generate more pop and have softer landings. Years ago, bigger boards were a challenge to design just because of their weight. But now we have the technology to make boards lighter than ever, so you can get the best of both worlds. You can have a big, fun to ride, light board. When I create a new board with Hyperlite, I get together with Greg Nelson, we brainstorm, sketch on paper, get out the bondo, the fiberglass, resin, the clay, and even have broken out the Play-Doh! Then we go into the shaping process. Once we have a prototype, I spend days back home riding it to test it out and send feedback for the next prototype. In my shop I keep my Top Secret Classified Prototypes. Some of these prototypes went on to be production models, others are still Classified. Seeing Jason’s video gave me an idea, I have a 155cm prototype that never made it to production! Let’s take it out for a spin and see how it rides… and then I’m sending it out to Jason to try out!

Or maybe you are like Jason, in the running for America’s largest wakeboarder? ---------------------------------------------- ➜ LEARN MORE ABOUT SHAUN AT -------------- https://shaunmurray.com ----------------------------------------------- ➜ CONNECT WITH ME -------- Facebook- https://facebook.com/ShaunMurrayWake Instagram- https://instagram.com/shaunmurray ---------------------------------------------- ➜ ENJOYING MY RIDE -------- STANDING ON- Hyperlite Murray 139 & 144 https://hyperlite.com/en/product/wakeboards-murray FEET IN- https://hyperlite.com/en/product/wakeboard-boots-team-x WEARING (CGA APPROVED)- https://jetpilot.com/collections/coast-guard-approved-vests-cga/products/shaun-murray-neoprene-cga-vest-1 HOLDING- https://www.hyperlite.com/en/product/wakeboard-ropes-handles-murray-t ----------------------------------------------- ➜ BOAT OF CHOICE -------- Nautique G23 https://nautique.com Speed- 23mph Length- 75ft ---------------------------------------------- ➜ MY PROGRESSION SECRET WEAPON -------- https://www.bbtalkinusa.com/product/shaun-murray-coaching-package/ ----------------------------------------------- ➜ DIALING MY WAKE WITH -------- https://leadwake.com ----------------------------------------------- ➜ GET MY GEAR FROM THE ORIGINAL WAKE SHOP -------- https://perfski.com ----------------------------------------------- ➜ DRIVING THE BEST WITH -------- http://mausfamilyautomotive.com
