Sure, you can get them from The Walker Project. See Dennis.

Squid also swears by his lakewakes grom. If you little is very small, like Jesse, I would only do the TWP grom, since it doesn't float well and is easy to flip.

Talking apples and oranges. Lakewakes has a 3.8 board and Twp has a 4.2 I believe.
This is a older vid, but the girl was 9 and weight was 65#.

I can add that Ben loves his Lakewakes grom 44, ben is 11 @ 76lbs.

Mark at lakewakes has been awesome to work with and is always thinking outside the box with feedback from customers. The turn around time is crazy fast (around 2 weeks) for a custom board. Now when I say custom, Im talking graphics, glass thickness, nose shape, fin placement, rocker...you name it he will deliver. The cork decking is brilliant as it providing grip and durability...and the kids are harder on stuff right!

Ben had no problem getting up as he has a wakeboard back ground.
Ragboy's Son Thomas has a great way to get up as he puts pressure on the board through his legs with one hand that tilts the board up....I think Thomas could get up on a mattress now with that technique.

Both products are solid, and I trust all that back them up.....

If you would like to know more about the Lakewakes Grom go to www.lakewakes.com


Sounds like It may be time for a Demo!

@joe Jesse was 5 and like 40 lbs wet. Now she can get up on just about anything, but for a good 2 years almost, the only thing she could flip was the TWP grom. If flipping the board isn't the issue, then there are lots more choices, like the lakewakes board.

thanks for the info what happen to the 375 these board used to sell for. twp grom is 575 on there website wow. what would be a good budjet board for them to learn on? what size/ shape should i look for for age 7 at 50lbs

They are expensive, but I can tell you that they are because they are expensive to make. And when you buy those mass produced boards made by wakeboard makers, almost all of them suck pretty bad. I hear you though.
