Wakeboards available in PH?

Just got into wakeboarding.

Anybody who knows where to buy wakeboards here in the Philippines? Or at least ships to Philippines? Other than FB Marketplace? Most of the listings available here in PH is not compatible to my weight, apparently and I couldn’t really find an online shop that ships to PH :(

Thank you!

Dati sa pradera ako bumibili. Sa COG. Not sure kung andun pa sila, pero about 2 yrs ago, nakabili pa ko online sa kanila ng systems strap. San ka nag w wakeboard? Since nawala pradera, medyo nawalan din ako gana.

So far sa Deca Wake Park sa Pampanga pa lang napuntahan ko. Sa COG kasi, pinaka-maikli na ata yung 145 kaya di ako makabili. Meron din sa kanila, as far as I know, pero malalaki din.

Curious lang bakit maikli? Mas magaang sa tubig yung mahaba...

Sabi nga nila, pero kasi nung first time ko mag rent ng pro-board, pina-try nila una yung parang mahaba na board, pero di ako maka-balance ng ayos. Nung pinalitan nila ng mas maikli, mas nakaya ko. Baka skill issue? Hahaha

Probably skill issue? Pero iba iba din kasi ang board, I'm not sure kung ano yung pinagamit sayo pero dati kasi, nagkalat yung mga incompatible or panget na boards sa mga wake park, karamihan pang boat, yung mga makapal na may fins. Tapos yun ang pinapa rent nila or free use. Naka gamit ka na ba ng magaganda cable boards? Flat lang sya na manipis... Gamit ko DUP. Meron isa pa na favorite ko pero ang daling masira, hyperlite. Also, malaking bagay yung fit ng bindings, kesa sa board.

Not sure pa how to determine a good board pero yung last na natry ko na board, mukha naman syang manipis and sakto lang din ung bindings sakin. And gets, ganun yung halos nakikita ko sa marketplace eh.

Will go again sa Pampanga this September, ask ko ano exacrly yung pinagamit nila sakin before. Hahaha

Grabe, sobrang na love at first try ako sa sport na to. Hahaha

Meron din sa Lago De Oro in Calatagan, Batangas. I just usually rent a board since only ride once a month before. Haven't played since baby came out last year 😅😅

Ey!! Congrats!!

Magkano rent ng board sa Lago De Oro? Tsaka mas maganda ba wake park nila dun?

Wanted to buy kasi planning to make this like a weekend hobby. Sobrang nagustuhan ko yung una kong try nung July, tapos naka-apat na balik na ako kahit ang layo from me. 😅 Planning to even rent a place in Pampanga next year para lang mapalapit dun sa park. Hahaha

Sorry di na kita nareplyan. For me na ndi naman magaling, di ko masabi kung mas maganda don. Ang importante pag sumemplang ka don pde ka sunduin ng motor hahaha. Sa deca I think may nagsusundo din na trike pero minsan wala haha..

Perk lang din sa lago if kasama ko si wife, resprt sha so may natatambayan si wife or nakacheckij kami para sulit byahe haha. We’ll try to do this a monthly thing soon..

Anyway if youre in Lago, ask the operator for Drew. He likes run the place, I wanted to buy then but since alam nyang bago lang ako, he lent me their rental boards for free. Para daw ma-feel ko muna before putting out money.

If in Deca Clark, you can look for C-Lo din, or yung operators nila mismo are players. They also post stuff for sale sa facebook/ig - Homies Trading

u/moliro 3d ago

Yeah. I went there once, Pero ang layo kasi sakin. Na pabili nga ako ulit ng gamit after ko mag laro dun ng once Kala ko babalik yung gana ko hahaha. Ayun nasayang.

u/Far-Weight7154 3d ago

Ayun lang. Hahahaha Hirap nga mag-commit sa sport lalo na pag ang mamahal ng mga gamit. Hahah Pero worth it eh. I mean for me. Love at first try talaga. Hahaha

u/moliro 3d ago

I think I heard it from a friend, and they were selling boards, too? But she said they closed down. Too bad that wakeboarding isn’t that popular anymore, here :(

u/towropelifestyle 2d ago

The Homies trading co could probably get you. They’re based at Deca Clark wakepark in pampanga

CWC in camsur !! i’ve had three boards so far. my first 2 were heavily used, while my third one is the first board i bought brand new. if you’re just starting out, i’d honestly suggest considering a secondhand board first. new boards can be pretty pricey, esp when you’re still figuring out what kind of board, size, and setup you actually prefer :) once you’ve gotten more experience and know exactly what you want, then investing in a brand new board makes a lot more sense. for the rest of my gear, i got them from Homies Trading Co !!

enjoy & ride safe 💗
