Boat or PWC

Parky · Guest

this topic has been brought up before but it was more discused between, can you say wakeskating.com for fathers (my self, wakesk8er1234, electricsnow, wcwakeskater and so on and so on) but since there are more people posting (closer to the season i guess) I would like to see what other people think... heres a couple questions

1. Boat or PWC which would you rather have
2. Boat or PWC which would you rather ride behind
3. Boat or PWC which would you rather see pull competitions

*disregard rails (becuase everyone would want a pwc for rail riding)*

Boat for all 3, unless its a comp with mainly rails the a PWC is ok

That's a hard choice so I didn't vote I mean sometimes I like a PWC when i need to get in close to shore for rails or just for the calmest water and quicker to get picked up and pick people up. But the boat has it's pluses to like room and more consistent speed and a lot better of a wake.

hard to say. id rather have both a boat and pwc to ride behind. depends what the comp was like. lot of rails and stuff tehn a pwc, but if thers more room or something then a boat

of cource you would want a pwc for rails and something to ride in shallow water but for this poll disragard rails, just think about the 3 questions up there

It's difficult to make a choice. Having both is having the best of both worlds. PWC can pick you back up faster and you might progress quicker. Boat has alot more advantanges such as music, better pull (tower), room for more people and stuff, plus you can stay out on the water longer and oh yeah, a wake. Boat.

i would say boat, because u can go w2w behind it and do tech stuff, but u can't do both with the jet ski

1. Boat
2. Boat
3. Boat

Easy one... but when i think about it... wakeskating is all about hitting rails, riding in shallow waters, poolgaps, stepdowns etc. the best thing for that is a pwc. So the perfect setup would be a X-star to chill in, a SeaDoo Wakeboard Edition to skate behind and off course a winch to do some jib on the golfcourse with!! Very Happy

Anyway, i'm planing to buy a pwc!
