    Is this video an intentional hit piece against wake boats?

    For clarity I mean "hit piece" as in published article or post aiming to sway opinions by presenting bias information in a way that appears objective. I am new to this scene and have seen some form of tribe mentality when it comes to jet boats for waterspouts vs. prop boats. I assume I will...

    242x wakeboard setup

    Just bought a 242x and can't wait to get behind it. I've seen a bunch of setups for wakesurfing but nothing really for wakeboarding. I'm starting to learn some bigger tricks and looking for the best setup for a big clean wake. This is my first boat with ballast and any suggestions are appreciated!

    New or used 242x

    I am debating between a 2017 242x at 66k or a new 2018 242x at 82k. I am not certain for the differences besides the paint schemes and 104 hours on the 2017. The 2017 has an extended warrantee to 2021 and the 2018 has no extension yet. Does this price sound resonable? What should I be concerned...
