Axis Wakeboard Boat Forum

Hey guys check out this new wake control system. So many possibilities with this system. The inventor is an avid surfer in the northwest. http://waketouch.com/media/AutoWake720HD.mp4

Interesting...

Cool idea. At what speed can you no longer pump into a tank or bag?

Very cool ... one way to get competitive advantage for some manufacturer ... another $3K option coming on someone's boat ...

I guess with surggate I am not as excited as the rest. I can usually dial mine in pretty quickly.

wish they would upload those videos to vimeo or youtube. They will not pull down for me.

I'll take the surfgate over any boat-tilting system. Being able to switch from goofy to regular with a toggle switch is wonderful. Also it allows me to ballast the boat evenly and heavily! If one side is deeper, it means the other side is lighter. That is wasted ballast capacity, in my book.

The system is not about tilting. It's about re-recreating your favorite wake. If everyone is sitting on one side the system will level your boat out for you. Now if you are always using 100% ballast with the same crew size then there would be little benefit.

There are big differrences in just moving a couple / few hundred pounds from left to right or front to back. Even with the fuel changes. This is BIG ... hope malibu gets on board. A very simple idea but a great one.
