I'm curious, has anybody ever got around to "typing" or naming various wake shapes and sizes? I know everybody has their own favourites in terms of speed weighting etc... but it's not something you often hear commentators talking about for instance. What do you guys pref?

FIRM, MEATY, BOOTER, SCOOTER....

Honestly what is big for you might be small for me.
I ride behind fully weighted Nautique Team Edition boats all the time.

I like firm, booter style wakes, those rampy "scooter" things are for trick skiers IMO...LOL...

I don't care what the shape as long as there is a crisp lip.

A super air with about 3000 lbs, nothing gets better than that, or an x-2 with the same weighting setup is very nice as well
