Dean and Axis making moves! AXIS now successfully has 3 of the biggest booters around!! I love the team they've put together!

I wonder if thats intentional or not? Proving that their wakes are big enough for the Vandall, Lyman, and Dean, at a price small enough for the rest of the world (if they use that as a slogan, I want royalties). Love the riding though, and glad to see the Axis team coming together so well.

I'm betting with this new rider the 2012's will be 3-5% higher. Pretty soon a22's will be into the $60k's and a20's around $55k.

Is it me, but I'm use to see Dean going higher than that!? I never seen an Axis wake, but it looks smaller than other wakeboats on this. I'm pretty sure Dean weighted it properly... does Axis A22 throw a pro size wake? (like an Xstar, 230, 210, etc)

Fred-Dean is still going huge, most wakes look small in videos (except Harley's). I've wondered about the Axis and Epic wakes, but for Axis to have Vandall, Lyman, and now Dean on their team, their wakes have to be legit. He just got back on a board after ankle surgery, so he's probably not quite 100% yet.

Hey Fred, you've got an epic. How do you like it?

I don't already know.... I'll be back with my feed back in few weeks because it doesn't work on ice.... I live in Quebec, Canada! I'm so pump about this summer with this boat! My cousin bought a 2011 one this winter. It comes with the new gravity ballast system. 3600lbs in 90 sec. It's gonna be awesome!

Yeah Dean is just getting of Ankle surgery so he's still working back. Although, tricks that huge give the air of I'M BACK pretty well haha

Awesome riding! My buddy has a new A22 that should be done in a about a month, so i am really stoked to get to ride behind it. The wake looks awesome from all the videos i have seen.

Glad to see the wolf pack bringing another rider in. Love my Axis and the community of riders in it too The pro riders seem to mesh perfectly....Well done Axis
