Very well indeed! We taught 2 kids how to wakeboard today using the system. Speeds set at 10.5 and 12.5 for each child. I love just laying the throttles forward and letting the system take over. Keeps the rope tight and keeps a steady speed for the kids so they get a nice steady pull. This system combined with the Aqua Buddy we picked up this spring is helping us teach all of our sons friends new activities!

Got my Ridesteady installed and used it for the first time this weekend. Worked great and I can’t wait to surf with it. My wife is going to be so much more comfortable now towing me surfing because she won’t have to mess with the throttles constantly. An installation note, I mounted the GPS receiver inside the helm on top of the fiberglass below the dash. Not sure about long term, but no problems so far and it’s concealed this way. (see pic, you just reach above and it’s a smooth surface that the tape sticks well to)

Sounds like a great product. I’m gonna check it out. Hopefully it’s compatible with a 2015 AR210.

I believe it is, actually. The non- HO MR1s have the APSs I believe!
