First of all, no offense to the OP but the boots pictured are definitely 2013s not '14s.

The boots got a complete overhaul in '14 (made with new lasts and materials) and while they mine (also...

the G21 wake is an exact fusion of the g23 and the old 210, basically: G23 size, with old 210 steepness. I rode it in deepish water (~12-15 ft) with stock ballast and people, and it was easily the...
