- Heavier riders or powered conditions – choose the larger size for more stability and earlier planing.

FAQ
Is the Monkette Gumbubble only for advanced riders?
No. It’s very accessible for intermediates who want to progress, yet has enough performance for advanced riders who like big airs and aggressive carving.
Can I ride it with boots?
Yes, the insert pattern and construction allow use with both straps and boots.
How does it handle strong, choppy conditions?
This is one of its biggest strengths – the rocker and base design keep it smooth and controlled when the wind and water get messy.
