just a question about joystick universal towers, I was told that they rattle from someone that didn't actually own one . I like info first hand any one have one? do they shake or move excessively? kcox

Friend of mine has one and it doesnt seem to be a problem, and he's a real big guy.

I think Erik Jernberk had one on his 2001. Maybe shoot him a pm. I belive he mentioned that they were good solid towers but their customer support sucked bigtime.

His id might be just 'Erik' now.......

Had mine for 3months now and never heard a squeek from it. See profile for a pic.

I'm on it! I tried to call them and gave a message but no response. I wanted a price range. thanks for your input and the boat in the profile looks great. The tower is better looking than i had seen in the advertisements. the whole deal shouldn't take long.

I talked with Joystick after seeing Eric's and others on older Nautiques. They suggeseted the newer Pro series model. I have had it on for this summer with no rattles or other issues. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another Joystick tower

That looks nice but I'm on a little tighter budget, what did you pay for your Pro-Series? I'm looking at the Jotstick Roll-Bar for $350, it looks like it'll do the job and can still come off fairly easy... can't find much user info on it though. I just gotta get a tower like yesterday! I'm tired of riding on the ski ilet and only getting 2 feet of air!
