Direct drive vs. V Drive

[KatanjiHoS]

What's the difference? Just starting some research on buying a wakeboard boat and the choices are overwhelming. Leaning toward a Malibu VLX although not sure if i'm going to buy new or used. Appreciate any comments, suggestions or points in the right direction where I can do more research on my own. Thanks in advance!

just make sure and avoid the "diamond" hull, i dont remember exactly which year they put that on one. (i believe it was malibu that did that)
direct drive will handle better, while v-drive will allow for more storage and easier to hide extra weight.
