I do not particullarly care for riding behind PWC's, so I don't do it very often at all. But Gib has a new Wake Edition and it changed my mind. I could almost swear that his was supercharged (maybe not),but it pulled me up with NO problem and I am a big guy.

The inside out wake was pretty good, but I didn't care for the outside wake, but still made the most of it and had a blast.

I did notice that the back end came around when the rider cut out hard, but it wasn't any worse than any other PWC, but again it has been awhile since I have ridden or driven one. I guess I am used to my boat as far as wake and tracking, but I had a blast on the Wake Edition and will ride behind it every chance I get, but will not get rid of the boat to get one. For the price of a new one you can get a nice mid 80's MC or Nautique.

Just one (boat riders) $0.02. Take it for what it is worth.

ive got a honda aquatrax f12x turbo, i love the wake, i like it alot better then my buddys rxt. just a reccomendation, check into the new honda aquatrax f12x turbos. If you want to know if its a good ski or not, look at it this way, the dvs team rides behind 2 of them, so they have to be somewhat good haha. its on the dvswake website. check it out i think you would really enjoy one.
