Oh, and you can get a white tower in 2012, which has hinges on the side supports to increase the ease of folding the tower. (99.9% the same tower).

chattwake 08-09-2011 11:05 AM

Don't you love it when a company cares about the wake/wave performance of their boats, and makes substantive changes that affect those areas, as opposed to simply adding new, uber expensive, pointless options? I sure do.

People at altitude want the boats to plane quicker with the plug n play - Axis does a deal for a factory option OJ prop that increases hole shot and keeps rpms at a reasonable level.
People who slam their boats for surfing want a bigger wave - Bam - Axis re-designes its platforms specifically to address this concern
People want to run 5k ballast in their boats - Axis offers a 450hp bullet proof LS3 big motor option
People want higher end audio components - Axis makes it happen with wetsounds as a factory option
People want their towers to fold easier - Does Axis come out with a new tower that looks like a sex toy that's been put in a trash compactor and then glued to a dirt bike and get rid of their tried and true existing tower option that people LOVE? Nope. Axis simply adds a hinge option to make an existing tower easier to fold without adding much, if any, cost.
People want to put a sub under the driver's seat - Axis redesigns the footwell so that, even if you order the boat with no sub, you can easily put your own 12'' in a space molded for a speaker in the footwell.

Let me tell you what's not in the 2012 Axis Boats - no air conditioning, no gold plated seat hinges, no diamond encrusted billet aluminum air dam door, no saphire crystal cupholders, no valet service, no 50'' plasma display, and no toilet (sorry Lon).

Your the man chatt! Now I'm super excited to go to the dealer meeting at the end of the month. I haven't heard about any of the updates yet so now I have even more to look forward to! Please tell me your ordering a 2012 for next year.

chattwake 08-09-2011 11:54 AM

Yup! Just got to sell my 2011. (Let me know if you know of anyone looking for a loaded vandal edition A22 with the big motor, z5, wetsounds system and 74 hours on it!)

bruizza 08-09-2011 12:16 PM

Damn I want a 2012 Axis now! That cut out of the 12 in the foot well looks damn familiar lol.

For the record saying Mastercraft changed the tower everyone loved is total bs. All I heard about was how much is shook and braces are such a bandaid blah blah blah.

They aren't 2012 models.Why don't you post up some pictures of your classic SUPREME.Are you ashamed of it.As for Chattwake he chats alot for a guy who stepped down from a Nautique.Or possible was financially unable to keep buying them.I really don't know what your short commings are and don't care,but your jealousy rings clear.:p

If I'm not mistaken Mr chatt is a litigation attorney. Not financially able? Possible, but i doubt it.:p

That sounds more like putting a bandaid on a design flaw.

Something that should have been ironed out in testing before the boat went into production.

Are there any pics yet of this surf wave that has been massaged by this alleged "wake shaping" swim deck?

p.s. Who is the insecure freak who keeps posting pictures of his Tige and making assumptions about folks who point out his idiocy?

chattwake 08-09-2011 7:43 PM

Hahaha. Well Mr. Tigue, i guess you cant take a joke. For what its worth, when I order a new boat every year, I buy what I believe to be the best boat for me (which includes ability to sell the boat quickly and get my money back out of it). Hell yeah, those 230s got so dang expensive that (even though I was getting them at cost) I was concerned about the market for used $85k wakeboats. If I had wanted a 2011 230, I would just have gotten my fourth one in a row, but I was sold on an a22 because it produces my favorite wake and because, due to the bang for the buck factor, there is a much broader resale market for that boat. Just because I can afford to buy something more expensive than what I have doesn't mean doing so is the right thing.

Trust me, I'm not jealous of your boat. If i wanted a boat like yours, id just buy one instead of what I've got.

At the end of the day, I'm happy you like your boat, and you'll notice that I have not said a thing about you posting in the thread dedicated to your boat. I start a thread or two myself every year when I get a new boat so I understand. I was simply poking fun at you because, despite a few members already ribbing you about peppering random threads with pictures of your boat, you continue to do so, which I find somewhat comical.

chattwake 08-09-2011 7:51 PM

Cipher,

I posted a pic of the surf wave with the new platform above. That's not my pic, though. I'm picking up my new platform this week and intend to take some of my own pictures. I'll post em up. Yes, I tend to agree with you that the platform thing could have been perfected from the beginning, but the a22 has only been around 3 years, and sometimes it takes a little time to perfect things. I don't know if I'd call it a bandaid, but more of a refinement.

That wake looks much better with the new platform and those hull badges look like the cat's pajamas...gonna have to order those for sure on my 2011.

Got it.

My point was other boats started off with "perfected" surf wakes when they were introduced and it didn't take three years to "refine" the surf wake. That's all.

you_da_man 08-09-2011 8:32 PM

So when is the 2012 Axis promo video going to be released Chatt? Thanks by the way.

wakintime 08-09-2011 9:03 PM

Damn. You are always putting people or brands of boats down. What' is the problem dude? You try to act so superior and seem to find your sarcasm and putting people down amusing. It's not. Let people have their own opinions and respect them.

wakintime 08-09-2011 9:11 PM

Oh and by the way cipher what kind of perfect boat do you have? Hmmmmm. I guess ab MB. The best boat made! It's a good boat but way down in the food chain.

ixfe 08-09-2011 9:16 PM

^^^ I don't have a problem with Cipher's posts. A little tension on the forum is a good thing... keeps us all honest. :D

There are many other things in this thread more disturbing than Cipher's banter.

Which one is it?

p.s. What brands of boats have I put down? Why do you have issues with folks discussing boat designs, on a DISCUSSION forum?

More silliness.

I have never claimed that MB is the best boat made. That's just more idiocy that you're making up (a straw man argument, solace for the weak-minded).

What you fail to understand is that normal people don't have their self-worth tied up in where they imagine their boat falls within the "food chain," as your post seems to indicate you do.

I've enjoyed every boat that I own, regardless of cost. They're simply toys, not some kind of validation of someone's "status," as you seem to think.

Your comments are just as retarded as the Tige freak's comments about chattwake "stepping down," "not being able to afford" other boats, etc.

Might I suggest an 1100 GPH Tsunami pump to wash the sand out of your vagina?

Cipher,
You are just so witty. And smart and superior. And you've found out my darkest secret! I'm insecure and fragile. Guess I'll have to call it a night cuz my butt is hurt. You never did confirm what boat you have. Have a wonderful evening you witty smart and superior person. LOL

So sorry fragile child. It's not a darkest secret. It's plain to see and you only have yourself to blame for that. If you didn't post such silliness, people wouldn't have the proof that you've provided.

FWIW, I have a 2011 B52 TWB 23 that I never claimed was perfect. We do have a bunch of fun on it though.

What is interesting is that you have a habit of responding to my posts with idiotic, extremely clueless, fantasies (https://www.wakeworld.com/forum/show....php?p=1689216)

I suggest seeing a doctor if that Tsunami doesn't clear up your condition!

wakintime 08-09-2011 10:10 PM

Facts are facts. You generally are negative. Retarded? Wow. You sound like a silly little boy. Don't you know it's mentally challenged. Oh by the way, could you send me a douche to get that sand out of my ass? Oh wait! You said vagina. I don't have that kind of equipment. It appears that you believe anyone that thinks you are a arrogant, negative human being must be a girl! Why is that? Are they inferior? Oh you don't have to send a douche. I'll just see if my wife has one or I will run out and buy one. I am so silly. By the way you are truly insensitive by using retarded. I have a nephew who is mentally challenged but is still wiser and kinder than you. Have a GREAT evening!

What is going on under the rear seat in the Mojo... looks like a void in the fiberglass, what is the purpose of the "shelf" under the rear seat?

pc_sledge 08-10-2011 4:01 AM

I have to add that I dig the lines of the new Mojo. Nice looking boat IMO.

chattwake 08-10-2011 4:09 AM

I bet that shell is a removable access hatch like what the a22 has, and can be used as a step when the rear seat is removed. I agree that it looks unfinished.

Older XLVs had a similar gap where a cooler would fit or the seat would remove to make legroom (but it ran parallell with the boat on the passanger side - doesn't make sense on the new placement) ... maybe the same thing? Otherwise I don't know

jason95gt 08-10-2011 8:33 AM

Axis might be listening to the riders, but there goes your sub $50k price point boat.

jdhart73 08-10-2011 4:00 PM

I don't think you are going to see anything epic out of the AXIS from a surf wake standpoint. The wakeboard wake is really nice though, wakesurf wake will be marginal but surfable.

WaterBullDawg 08-10-2011 4:23 PM

From my "source"- I believe it needs to be stressed that it is still in prototype. From what I was told, the dash is not finished and the final length has not even been settled on, although it is going to be around 22 feet. The hull is modeled after the old 2004 (I believe) Supra that had that unbelievable boarding wake. Difference is this one is supposed to offer a disgusting surf wake.

Not coming from me, but a guy that has ridden in it.

twelve02 08-10-2011 5:40 PM

I really like the new Moomba Mojo, but the rear seats look a little too square and firm... Perhaps they are comfortable, they just don't look like it from the pics.

chattwake 08-11-2011 4:22 AM

Probably 56k, but I can drop that price is you want me to take off the z5 and put the stereo back to stock.

Hey Chattwake...do you know if the new surf platform for the a22 will fit a 2011? would be nice to switch it out if it is....

Nova 08-15-2011 11:20 AM

Chattwake makes me want to buy an Axis...with all 8 dollars in my wallet.

chattwake 08-15-2011 11:26 AM

Meghan, Yes, it will. I can do a writup of the install of mine. I'll try to get that done this weekend. No price has been released yet for the platform, but I have emailed my dealer about it and as soon as I get a quote, I'll send out a mass pm to everyone who's contacted me about it.

megsswm 08-15-2011 11:39 AM

Thank you! we are super interested in that and the hard sided cooler insert that is being added to the 2012's. its the only two things in our 2011 I would change at this point so it is great to see they already have it ready for 2012.

johnny_defacto 08-15-2011 8:29 PM

Jake, you are right about tue wakeboarding wake, mine is rad... as far as the surf wake, i do not know, i dont surf or care to, i love the huge swim platform and do not like the new one on the 2012s that are supposed to help the surf wave be better... with that said, there is a photo of chattwakes goofy surf wave behind his 2011 a22 that is pretty epic. I think its on 2 different threads, possibly in the a20 vs f21 thread or in the moombas guys axis write up.

Anyone else notice the different wedge on the white A22 in the boulder boats link above?

chattwake 08-17-2011 11:27 AM

What looks different about it to you?

tommyg 08-17-2011 11:39 AM

Chat, if you put in the plug & play ballast in the Axis, does it pretty much use up all of the storage space?

I like that they modified the platform for a better surf wake, but I gotta say I'm not a big fan of the speakers in the middle of the rear seat, and while I like the tricked out trailer option, I'm not a fan of the rockstar wheels. Considering looking at an Axis closer for the next boat...I hang on to mine for a long time, and I doubt the rockstars will age well...

chattwake 08-17-2011 11:50 AM

Buy my 2011 then! My speakers are not in the middle in the rear and I don't have rockstars! haha

tommyg 08-17-2011 12:07 PM

probably will look at an '11, but I've still got a bit of time before I step up, plus I can't do an all black boat...otherwise yours would be exactly what i'd be looking for.
