    These things safe for water sports?

    I wonder how many end up wearing the serpentine belt as a necklace?

    Show us your tow rigs!

    Hopefully and from my experience, the modern diesel trucks are more reliable. My 2018 Duramax has been the most reliable truck I've owned after 3 years of medium duty towing. I couldn't say the same for my 2011 Duramax, it was problematic. We're talking LML as the 1st generation with all the...

    Wake surf

    Hi @Lesley, It's important to note that a shaper does not build a surf wave, its job is to clean up the wave. A clean wave generates more push than a turbulent wave and that is why they are a helpful add-on. The 19' models however, because they are a single jet, don't have as much of an issue...

    Thoughts and demo rides of wake / towsports boats: Moomba Max, Axis A22, MB Sports

    I am feeling the pain myself. Worked 47 hours of overtime over the past 2 weeks... I was forced to cancel last weekends 4 day boating vacation to meet our installation deadlines. It's madness! Our last day on the water was July 14th. It's been a frustrating few weeks!

    Multi purpose setup questions- surf, wake, slalom

    For wakeboarding and skiing, I don't feel there's a need for any additional shaping modification. For wakeboarding, fill the ballast, find the right length for the rope and let it rip. As mentioned above, the Ridesteady is a essential for boarding, skiing, or even general cruising. Set the...

    Multi purpose setup questions- surf, wake, slalom

    Congrats on the boat! Step 1 is ballast - Ballast is what builds a surf wave. The more water you displace the larger the wave. Your boat has factory ballast, but it's a very light and has a shallow draft by design and has. Adding ballast makes the biggest difference. On our Yamaha's weighing...

    Thoughts and demo rides of wake / towsports boats: Moomba Max, Axis A22, MB Sports

    I appreciate the info. I've probably designed 6 or 8 MB's in the past few months. They're growing on me.

    Thoughts and demo rides of wake / towsports boats: Moomba Max, Axis A22, MB Sports

    Okay, I've been gradually looking at the MB boats closer and closer throughout the year. I've avoided visiting our chatting with a dealer, because I know I'll start a process I'm not sure I'm ready for yet... Mind answering a few questions? Can you give me a ballpark on the going price of the...

    That's awesome! Great looking boat, funny that according to other members dealers, the '22 model info isn't supposed to be released until Aug. 18. Thanks for the sneak preview!
