New Tige for 09.I don't think the malibu owners like it much.Does Tige have a right to use this style tower or for that matter the pickle fork?I think there doing the right thing bringing together key features of several boats.Besides both the illusion tower and the pickle where used in the boat industry before Malidu and Mastercraft.

Swoop and pickle does not a Malibu or MasterCraft make.

Way to make no sense there mr wakeboard report writer guy! Laughing

And where do these new Tige's sit in your top 10 list of boats you may or may not have ever been out on?

padless walk through transom sacrifices valuable honey space. Other than that, pretty slick.

Love the Wetsounds!

scott a, I forgot to respond to that, about what I'd been out on and what I hadn't - I just edited it to answer the question. The CSX 220 run barely counts but I have been behind it. So - 7/10.

Those graphics are pretty hideous in my opinion. Like the boats for the most part, but I don't know why someone would want to own something with that bullsh!t all the way down the side of it.

If it didn't have the ugly stickers and the goofy interior vinyl.I might would consider the boat.Just seems kinda tacky to me.

looks about right from tige. just keep ripping off the industry leaders and sell to people who don't care/know any better.

tige's owner is in our cove partying all the time and it takes everything i have to not bust his balls about his boats.

I'm a fan of the tower. It fixes Bu's problem of getting the rope caught on your board racks. It also really nicely integrates the lights. It puts CC's new tower to shame. Graphics are lame though and I'm not a big fan of Tige's picklefork. (Makes it kind of look like CC debuted a Model T at the same time Tige debuted a Lexus) Don't like the picklefork much in general but MC's is still the best imo.

graphics are hideous, and with the bimini up it looks identical to the illusion x. And pickle forks are teh gay. The only thing good about that boat are the chicks in the back.

the green one looks sick IMO

The boat doesn't look that bad, and i like how the tower cuts back rather than keep going with the illusion, because in my opinion, the tow point for the illusion is too far into the boat and the rope get in the way of people in the boat.

The 2 wasted feet with no padding bother me, as do the graphics and dash.

I think the new tiges look alright myself! Not that I'll ever spend that kind of dough on a brand new boat. Ridiculous. I haven't been behind one of these new ones, but the wake behind an 06 tige that I have been behind A LOT, is by far one of the best I've experienced. Of course, thats with the factory ballast and TAPS.

I think this one looks pretty sick...

But I'm not much on the interior or helm. The tower looks pretty neat. Looks a lot easier to break down then my Supra tower.
