Picked up my new Vandall today and I have to say i'm super impressed on her looks and performance. Just blew me away hitting that wake for the first time. And surfing behind her was awesome too!

These are all the pics I managed to get before i just had to get her on the water!

The orange flake is a bit hard to see because it wasnt that sunny lol

MCObray 08-14-2013 9:59 PM

That is one great looking Axis. Congrats on your purchase and post up more pics/vids of the boat and it's wake.


By the way, Joe Dirt is the man.

durty_curt 08-14-2013 10:01 PM

so, what are you doing for Halloween with that kinda color scheme? btw sick!

JoeDirtSUCKS 08-14-2013 10:26 PM

Thanks man i'll be out all day tomorrow so there will sure be a bunch of pics for me to post! And Curt i'll probably be wakeboarding if it aint too cold lol

priszkid 08-14-2013 10:31 PM

Congrats on the boat man!

mattl 08-15-2013 5:29 AM

I love your color selection. Can't wait to see more pictures.

tyler97217 08-15-2013 6:43 AM

Very nice! Congrats

chattwake 08-15-2013 7:32 AM

Looks great!

bruizza 08-15-2013 12:13 PM

Very Nice!

Bamabonners 08-15-2013 12:47 PM

Cool colors, but never did like that creepy hand on the V. That surf gate panel looks like it could have been shaped a little better - looks kindof crude looking IMO. Maybe a little more rounded would give it more of a "finished" look.

rexlex01 08-15-2013 12:57 PM

Wow. Halloween Boat.
When is the Skull....skeleton / phase...trendy ....fad... going to be over? It's getting old/boring.
It's time to move on already. G23

jroyal 08-15-2013 1:44 PM

Sweet ride. Don't fret over the haters.:banghead::banghead::banghead:

bryce2320 08-15-2013 1:55 PM

I love the boat. Looks badass and the vandall graphics look really good on it IMO. That orange flake looks really good.

Super nice boat!! I'm also a big fan of the color scheme and Vandall graphics.

Never fails that guys jump in and rag on a new boat...yeah we all would love to have $150K kicking around for a G but let's be realistic. Plus check the profiles to see what they are towing with...jealous much?

Enjoy the Axis

Nice looking boat! I like the orange flake. Enjoy your new boat!

fman 08-15-2013 3:25 PM

jonblarc7 08-15-2013 5:44 PM

I don't really like the solid closed bow with the lifting eye on front. always looked out of place to me. when is the fixed closed bow, no walkthrough windshield boats with towers too tall phase going to be over? 2014 prostar. lol

tn_rider 08-16-2013 3:00 PM

That tower just screams spider cracks.

DatTexasBoy 08-17-2013 11:52 AM

That thing is sick. Just got mine too.

tn_rider 08-17-2013 2:37 PM

Dattexasboy make a thread with pics of yours!

lifetimewarranty 08-17-2013 2:39 PM

Now that the troll has been called out can we please see some on the water pics of the boat this thread is about!

JoeDirtSUCKS 08-17-2013 9:10 PM

Been out on the water since i bought her lol but ill try and get some on the water pics tomorrow!

markj 08-18-2013 1:21 AM

That boat is sick. Just wondering in the last pic if it was you that backed up or the car behind pulled up behind. That looks like a near miss!

cwb4me 08-18-2013 6:10 AM

That Chevy is under the platform!

DatTexasBoy 08-18-2013 5:38 PM

Just picked mine up too. Sorry to hijack, didn't want to start new thread.

wakebordr11 08-18-2013 8:37 PM

Both are great looking boats! Jealous!

MCObray 08-18-2013 9:31 PM

IMO, the Axis line up has some of the most aesthetically pleasing exteriors for a boat, especially the Vandall editions. Texas and JoeDirtRocks, y'alls boats are easy on the eyes.

Jmorlan 08-18-2013 11:56 PM

a thing I dont understand about the Axis boats, is the windshield. Were stainless cup holders and wrap windshields that much of a cost factor on these boats?

bryce2320 08-19-2013 3:56 AM

Stainless cup holders are an option this year :p

bryce2320 08-19-2013 3:59 AM

Beautiful boat btw, Rance!

chillinoj 08-19-2013 7:15 AM

Awesome Boats, can't wait to see some shots of y'all riding behind these beauties as well!

Khyber 08-19-2013 7:21 AM

I would expect a monster year from Axis now that they have surfgate to compliment their impressive wake

DatTexasBoy 08-19-2013 7:24 AM

Just picked up my 2014 Axis A22 Vandall today. Couple pics.
 
Ill get wake pics on Saturday morning.

Thx Bryce, can't wait to see yours.

Indyxc 08-19-2013 7:28 AM

Sweet axis boats!!

To the guy hating with the old closed bow. You're a complete loser.

It's actually a nice feature of the boat. There's no side spray near the drivers seat with the Axis so no need for a wrap around windshield (even in blown out conditions). When you pull along side of a down rider you can easily talk to them if needed, and you can pull along side of a dock and not have to get out of the seat to hold the dock.

Kyson 08-19-2013 8:31 AM

I actually love the Axis windshield - it would be difficult to go back to a conventional one. Especially talking to your boarder in the water as you come back around, or around docks.

I agree on the cup holders tho. Something I had to upgrade.

Beautiful boats in this thread btw.

Kyson 08-19-2013 8:33 AM

Sorry. I didn't see someone else posted the same content. I guess two of us appreciate the feature...

Exactly, i hate thinking about losing the Axis style windshield if I switch brands...love it. I've had 2 friends with other wakeboats who have driven my Axis say they actually like the windshield and being able to talk to the rider is nice.

Wow. (Nice Boat - Not a hater)

Halloween Boat ( Colors remind me of halloween - dont know why? - Not a hater comment)

Finger Graphic ( Opinion of 1% of the boat - again not a hater)

V8_Killer 08-19-2013 2:54 PM

Jesus why so much hate? Can't you just tell the guy congrats on his new and awesome boat?

CONGRATS JOHN! Many many hours of enjoyment to you and yours.

Dusty

grant_west 08-19-2013 3:15 PM

So let me get this straight Green and Black = Cool if your boat looks like a can of monster energy drink Its the Bee's Knee's
But Orange and Black= some how is No Bueno?
LoL

The Orange and Black looks great.

Btw don't worry about the "Dong Tards" this place had become full of the
And this is a prime reason why it's on the decline

It was the condescending tone. If you didn't like his colors, fine; it's not something you have to deal with. And what was with the "G23" ending of your post? Do you have one?

Grant is spot on with the Monster green opine.

I replaced the cup holders in my boat.
A set of 8 stainless was $34. Identical to the ones in my buddy's Malibu.

Which brought me to thinking on the Axis, if they are cutting corners on a $34 set of cup holders (which is not even bulk pricing in the volume they would purchase) where else are they cutting costs? Seems like a pretty insignificant area to cut and makes me weary of the rest of the build quality if they are willing to cheap out on something like that.

Great looking boats guys!

oops haha i had a rough morning, read that one wrong...:banghead:

brett33 08-19-2013 5:22 PM

no worries man.

again beautiful boats guys!

rexlex01 08-19-2013 6:56 PM

I have an opinion on the windshield and cup holders, but I better not express it like some have here who have not been called out. LOL

I dont care if no one likes anything about my boat, go ahead and say it. I will not cry to mommy as I dont base my self esteem on the opinions of others and their friends.
The Monster green opine comment was funny. I never said I did not like black and orange.

Lighten up! This is not a "Women's Day" forum but wakeworld with opinions and comments.
Enjoy your boat John.

AXISA20 08-19-2013 8:08 PM

Nice boat, I love my Vandall. Dollar for dollar best boat I've been in!

You ended your critical post with G23... bruh. Please explain:eek:

Fiveflat 08-21-2013 8:54 PM

I LOVE my half windshield on my Axis. I'm going to likely be moving into a 2014 Supra SC though and that's the only thing I'm a little discouraged about.

The half windshield is an option with Mastercraft as well... ;)

hotstreetvw 08-24-2013 10:22 AM

We're you on Lake Tyler this morning? We were in the 06 SAN

You guys looked impressive!
