wakecraft

to each his own. Kyle is right that it's great to see guys on beater boats getting out there and killing it.

I disagree about appreciating nothing more than to see the "blingier" boats being towed in. That's just another form of hating.

No matter what your ride behind, and how good you are (or aren't), props to those getting out there and just enjoying the sport. and props to guys who own Wakecrafts, and aren't afraid to not take the safe choice and buy the same boat that the rest of us have. It may not be my cup of tea, but if you like it, that's all that matters. Plus, you're not just following the herd.

Enjoy it, and who gives f*** what anybody else thinks.

Well said Tommyg!! It takes new companies to push the old, and in the long run it makes it better for everyone! Early adopters of new products make all of this possible, good on anyone who steps out and takes a chance on something new. Who cares if its a boat or a little thing called the Ipod (which by the way before the masses was very expensive and slammed by everyone who owned a PC).

nice boats fellas. way to step out there and try the product. Ideas are what makes a company different from the rest and wakecraft is definitely not afraid to try something new. props to ya.

Rod, how long was the line in your pic? how much weight, std 1200? the shape looks pretty good.

Looks to me like store brand version of a wakeboard boat

James do you care to ellaborate on your comment so everyone but yourself can understand what the hell you are talking about. What boat are you rockin?

It's funny how a thread like the "scammed by Josh Boyd" one can show us how many cool people are on this forum and then one like this can show us how many tools there are.

There was a quote, I think it was by WCW, or in the rules, but no one should post anything in a thread that they wouldnt say to someones face. If you can honestly say that you can walk up to a guy next to his new boat and say its ugly, then feel free to post that way, but just know it wont make you any friends.

Back to Wakecrafts, I like the two you guys own, and would like to see more of the ones they have made since the first red and black boat.

I like the fact that this boat/company was kept in the shadows and we first start hearing from them from real owners, I mean, I totally support the Epic project too but it got kind of loooooong with all the prototypes and gossip talk.

Here is another one! This one was built for us up in Canada.

I like the color combo, looks great.

plz don't flame me too bad, but...

I don't see why people put fancy rims on their trailers- they're just going to go in the water anyway.

Because they can. Why ask why

The rims are standard and personally I just wanted some that would work, but I have grown to like them. Im trying to resize some wake pic's from this morning I'll post a few in a sec. Bullit, it looks even better in person! Great design on the vinyl you came up with also.

Sorry for some reason the pic's wont finish attaching. If you want a few pic's of the wake just send me a PM and I can send them to you. In the mean time I'll keep trying.

Does anybody have a wakecraft anywhere close that I can check out????

Does anybody have a wakecraft anywhere close that I can check out???? S.D. area

I think I am as far south so far. Merced. But you can fly in direct from SD. :-)

My bad, its not direct.

These are all just with me in the boat and between 22.5-23 MPH.

This one is with no ballast

pushing too many buttons sorry about that.

Half - 3/4 ballast

Do you have any w/ ballast?

Ya Im trying but I keep having to make the size smaller. I'll try again.

This is full on a slight turn sorry about that one.

am i the only one that thinks this thing looks like a whacked out malibu?

Here are a few others just screwing around between 8-11 MPH.

Looks nothing like a BU to me.

I think they look pretty nice, and I like that you can customize a lot of things on it. The only thing I would like to see is a different tower offered, so that people who don't want the 6x9's and have a chance to put up some wetsounds/nvs or something along those lines.

its funny how people rip on this boat when it was produced by a guy from malibu & calabria. not some unexperienced engineer. my questions: how does it handle rough water? it looks a like a lower profile boat, is that true?

I have more but have to get going PM me if anyone wants to see others.

It sits a little lower but handles the rough water pretty good. The owner of the company and I went out to this same lake to test out some things and it was white caps and it did real well. Tracks very nice too and you have the option of adding a third tracking fin if you plan on doing a lot of swerving.

I'll get some pic of the hull so you can see just how different this boat is belly side.

DUCKBOY: You give the midwest a bad name, shut up and take your attitude elsewhere.

8.5 full 1200# ballast only me in the boat

I think he (DUCKPRICK) has went into hiding.

The wake has a nice shape and no wash. I would like to see pictures with a rider at 70ft and 23mph. Also, maybe some pics with it sacked out.

Leo the photographer last weekend got some with exactly that. Once they overhaul the website they will be there. But if I have a chance to get out in the next week I'll snag a few for you guys. 70 feet puts you about three feet infront of the wash you see in the photos ^^^.

here is one i took awhile back, first time out so im not sure on the configuration. lake is 4ft deep. and i am by myself

couple more at folsom lake. again i dont remember the comfiguration

Wake looks good,Big E even money says he is lurking.

Those last pictures look pretty good.. Like entrust said, the only things im not a fan of is the rear platform and the side graphics.. Just go blank on the side of the boat and i think it looks alot better... I like how you can customize everything as well.. not a bad overall boat

So true Mike,so true.

Nope guys I didnt dissapear just out on my "entry level" boat. Love the length of the thread though.

glad you back duckguy!

another wakecraft hits the water...

Interesting bimini, got a pic with it open?

(Message edited by evil0ne on May 07, 2007)

here is mine with it open

I am curious about the bimini too...

Duckboy: A few compliments on the color scheme of your boat clearly went to your head, whats really "entry level" here is the quality of your character. Keep up the good work, I am sure redline appreciates the way you rep MC.

the other direction, we were in a white centurion typhoon edition 23' vdrive. white tower black speakers blue bimini. next to the big yellow cig boat.

rod is that saltwater?

no thats the delta, although brackish in some parts.

I have not seen a picture of anyone riding behind it. Does anyone have a pic of someone riding at full ballast? BTW, the boat does look better in the water than on the trailer to me. Good luck with it.

Thanks for the bimini photo, can this boat be purchased without the tower speakers? That is the only part I am not a huge fan of, the wake looks nice!

i imagine you can put any speakers you want in there, however the tower has the speaker box formed in so some sort of 6x9 spekaer would have to go in there.

That tower and bimini looks like an archway entrance to a moonwalk or a ride at the fair or something.

duckguy, do you work for redline?

No, he does not.....just bought his boat there.

Rod when were you at Village West in Stockton?

Thats too bad Rod, I think that is the only cosmetic feature that I really disagree with.

that was sunday after the shoot at mclure. i have a houseboat nearm there and we go to garlic brothers for lunch every sunday.

I grew up in that spot and lived on the slew around the corner. The only good reason to live in Stockton.

Mike Im sure you can talk them into a different tower, at least I don't see why not.

(Message edited by deltaboy on May 07, 2007)

As Mike said, No I dont work for them, they are all great guys over there, unlike me.

O and Mike I hope my comments havent made you so upset so you ban me from your website-I certainly would not to know what to do with myself if I couldnt read thread after thread about T-Shirts.

(Message edited by duckguy on May 07, 2007)

why Matt... why?

such an idiot!

The Yellow and Black one is sick looking!

What a *****.. Will someone ban this idiot from posting on here

BTW.. agreed with Byrd, the boat definitely looks better once its in the water.. Change the tower a bit and i think its a pretty sick boat

Boat does look nice but that tower has to go. I think it would look sick with a titan3 on there.

The back end reminds of the old Gecko's.. i think they were called.. i like em..

Matt, you're losing again. You've just got to let your other persona reemerge in another thread.

Thankx ponyh8r, I like it too.

over the years the most memorable people are the the xstar guy that talked all sorts of ••••• that his dad boought that was one of a kind with the barbwired. Ryanxstar or something like that.... at least ryan realized that he came off as an idiot at first and then backed off. I saw other posts from matt (dickguy) and they seemed reasonable until this one. Nice boats guys and don't let him beat you up.

Still no pics of wakeboarding behind it...Come on guys, show some love, lol...

^I am with byrd, the wake looks damn good in a couple of those pics.

poor suckguy, life must be like giving a ******* ALL DAY. i would HATE to know this f**k3r personally. keep your bullsiht to yourself dude

I also like the looks of the wake. you guys put any real hours on 'em yet? anyone put 1000 extra in it?

(Message edited by denverd1 on May 08, 2007)

Looks like a cleaner wake than the Epic....lets see some pics weighted at speed with a rider for perspective.

im hoping to get it out this evening and get some more pics and some riding. i cant add more weight since i dont have any bags, buy i will load it with the stock 1200lbs and use the trim plate.

i have about 12 hrs on mine, mostly break in , surfing and some wakeskiis.

i found a surfing attempt pic. we wre trying to get one guy up on each side..

one more , wasnt able to get a pic without the lines.

The original Red and White Wakecraft was out on Skaha Lake in Penticton BC Canada this weekend... didnt get a chance to see it up close... but a friend rode behind it... no feedback yet.. but Iheard the water conditions werent very nice... All of you who know me out there... if I was there.. you know you would have had full photo and video review and feedback!
