Wakesurfing has completely taken over the lake, offering a low-impact, high-stoke ride that the entire family can enjoy. But not all waves, and not all boards, are created equal. Getting the right shape under your feet is the difference between constantly falling out the back of the wave and effortlessly riding the pocket all day long. At The Drop, we carry the most advanced wakesurf technology on the market to help you drop the rope with confidence.
Surf Style vs. Skim Style Shapes
Finding your riding style is step one. If you want a loose, skate-like feel built for spinning 360s and throwing shove-its, our Skim Style boards from brands like Phase 5 feature thin profiles and tiny fins for ultimate maneuverability. If you prefer deep bottom turns, massive airs, and aggressive carving, our Surf Style boards from Ronix and Hyperlite offer thicker, buoyant profiles with larger surfboard-style fins to generate massive speed down the line. If you can't decide, check out our hybrid shapes that blend the best of both worlds.
The Right Ropes & Fins
Never use a thin wakeboard rope to wakesurf. You need a dedicated, thick wakesurf rope. These ropes are much safer to pull in, feature specialized EVA handles that won't ding your board if you drop them, and are exactly the right length to put you directly in the sweet spot of the wave. Want to change how your board rides? Swap out your fins to instantly alter the speed, grip, and looseness of your setup.
Protect Your Investment: Wakesurf Bags
High-end wakesurf boards are built with ultralight EPS cores, carbon fiber, and epoxy resins. They ride incredibly well, but they are fragile out of the water. Leaving them bouncing around the floor of the boat or exposed to direct sunlight for hours is a recipe for dings and delamination. Protect your gear with a heavily padded day bag to ensure your board survives the summer.
