David, Before buying our Malibu, one of the boats that we looked at was the 220. For a variety of reasons we didn't buy it, but one of the big ones is that even the sales guy said that if we like to slalom *at all* that we wouldn't like the wake of the 220. We figure that it wasn't a good sign if the salesman is warning us off & didn't even demo it for that reason. If you're looking for a good crossover boat, the Malibu Sunsetter LXI would be a good one to look at & should be in the same price range. Tracks awesome & puts out a wake that is not really any larger & only a little harder than a Response. It'll also put out a respectable wakeboarding wake, especially when used with the Wedge - extremely versatile. Hope that helps.
