I love the Epics. And I like this iteration of the tower a lot better than the Titan that was on them previously. I would like to see one without a graphic. That is the only thing I don't really like. Less Batman symbols will go a long way with me, personally.

I love the epic's too. I hear you are going to be able to get them with your own custom graphic or something like that too.

Jeff, Last I heard the MSRP was going to be 60k.

and the 23vt is going to be sick...[/b]

Epic and Tige should have a no holds barred cage match. The winner gets the title of "Ugliest Tower".

Not really, unless it is for runner up - as Titan already won that highly coveted award.

No way. Tige takes the cake this year. They should get a lifetime achievement award for this years. I

Perhaps. I guess I don't care for Tige to such an extreme extent that I don't even notice what they did this year.

I actually dont think that is THAT ugly, but it is certianly not classic or timeless like the Supra, Correct Craft, and a few other manufacturers towers are. I dont think that boat is very bad "looking" in general.

Erik,
You should check it out in person. I looked at it at the boat show and just couldn't get past it to see the boat....

But that's just me..

Shouldn't Ronald McDonald be driving that monstrosity? Hey Tige, Grimace called, he wants his boat back. I can just see Mayor McCheese jackknifing the trailer and the Hamburglar getting sesame seeds all over the interior.

I called that boat the 'McTige' the first time I saw it. Hideous colors.

ridden behind epic or tige, ive ridden behind numerous kinds of tige's. as for wake, meh, they need ballast, taps doesnt hold up to correct crafts, master crafts or malibus, supras, moomba ect ect, plus, there way too overpriced, imo, ugly. as well look at that 20v interior, looks amazingly cheap, especially the glove box Rolling Eyes

Aside from the nice set of cans in the boat, I didn't see anything in that picture that really appealed to me. To each his own though.

Wow. By far? They aren't even out yet. For some reason your statement makes me think of this article:

The epics are really growing on me. At first I didn't like the style, now I do.

I don't think I would buy a 24' boat in the next 5 years though. Can anyone say 12 person rotation? I don't think so.

6 persons on a 24' = plenty of room for everyone

12 persons= no so much

Chocolate Sauce, im not here to jump all over your opinion...but, tiges are by no means overpriced, in fact they are one of the cheaper boats ( and i say that refering to price) out there, next, as far as wake goes, you aparently havnt ridden behind a tige with ballast in it, the wake is amazing. The reason people hate tige so much is because they have never ridden behinded a properly weighted tige, and tige's marketing sucks. Their idea of trying to sell a wakeboard boat is attempting to make it appear as a family boat for both wakeboarders, and slalomers, the reality is even with the tapps all the way down, the slalom wake sucks, its just too big.
