I have always wanted a Malibu or X series and am ready to make the change. Love my 24Ve and the other Tige's I have had over the years. I saw the X-55 and fell in love with all the room.

There is a X-55 for sale nearby that I went on a demo ride this weekend. The owner did not seem to know how to set the boat up for different activities and could not show me a clean wakeskate wake (18mph) or even really a decent surf wake. It has ballast at each rear corner and one in the center but he said none up front? It also has a Left, Center and Right wake plate so lots of options for setup, as well as addition ballast could easily be added in.

We only wakeskate and surf with a rare wakeboard run each summer.

Can anyone share what they know about the wake of the X-55, especially can you get a clean wake at around 18mph? What about the Surf wake?

I have done a few hours of research and find conflicting information. Several posts were saying bigger boats are not good for surfing?

The G25 is the king and the G23 is the prince of wakeboarding and surfing. The new NSS system allows you to change the size and length of the surf wake for different riders. No other wakeboat has more useable space and storage . Also best wakeboard wake hands down.
