I saw a black epic today for the first time ... I didnt think they were available yet. <BR> <BR>It looked pretty hausy. My 'bu was able to catch up to it and its big-ole engine. <BR> <BR>

arent they loud?? ive seen one on the water also to me they sounded like a jet power boat with a threw transon exhaust

You saw it on the water and didnt get a full video of pro riders riding the boat fully ballasted??? YOU SUCK...just kidding. Was it the prototype or an actual production model?

I'm not sure - I couldnt believe it was a real boat. It looks really bulky.... Pretty hot. <BR> <BR>

haha - of course not! <IMG SRC="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":-)" BORDER=0>

you saw my boat. I'm the rep in the Midwest. it's a preproduction boat w. no mufflers and yes, it's frickin' loud. We're working on getting our new factory in BC set up and will be rolling out production boats soon. <BR>It'll be nice to quiet it down. Next time you see me @ Hillsdale feel free to flag me down and have a quick set. It's a fun wake. Later.

Griff: i suck and would be only a detrimet to your boat -- BUT since my boat is in the shop until July 4th, I'll take a pull anytime! <BR>

no worries, clayton. you'll dig the boat. We might be headed out tomorrow evening. Usually get out around 6 or so. I'll let you know tomorrow if we are planning on heading out.

Need any product testers here in BC? <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/biggrin.gif" border=0> Is the new production plant in Penticton or Kelowna? <BR> <BR> <BR>(Message edited by smooth_worm on June 19, 2006)

New factory is in Penticton. That's actually where they're made right now as well. It's amazing how many people have offered to product test those boats...but if you ever see the guys up in the Penticton area give them a shout and I guarantee a set or two.
