The tower is a big help. It pulls your forwards instead of down.

It helps increase your airtime by a little but you can do basically any trick behind a towerless boat as a boat with a tower. You cant blame your riding or say you cant advance your riding without a tower unless your doing very difficult inverts and spins.
