I saw this sticker on the X-Star at the Boat show this weekend: <BR> <BR> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65919/97380.jpg" alt=""> <BR> <BR>The WakeWorld community is pull'n some weight! <IMG SRC="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":-)" BORDER=0>

I saw that too and was blown away! How cool is that. First it shows up in the corner of all their ads and now this! I've got to get a hold of a stack of those stickers.

Dave, soon wakeworld will turn into the 'academy' of wakeboarding. <BR>We can have the wakeworld oscars, and call them the 'worldies', or even better the 'Dave's'

What does "riders choice" mean?

THAT is freakin sweet. Dave, You just upgraded the server not to long ago didn't you? Hope it's big enough cause i have a feeling this spring wakeworld is gonna be SWAMPED.

You can also another simular sort of thing like this in the Mastercraft Rewind DVD. Except it's Zane saying that wakeworld has pronounced the new X-Star the boat of the year.

Perhaps WW does have some clout in the industy. This makes it all the more disappointing that the proposed "objective boat test" project seems to have just died after the first and only review, in which the X-Star received five pages of glowing writeup.
