This pic was taken without any ballast!
Last year we had an 05 X-2 and i would say that the wakes without ballast were nearly the same height. My wife is a very good wakeboarder and she said, that the shape ís much better in the new X-2.
After the breakin period we will ride with ballast plus additional ballast. We want to put two fat sacs in the rear and two side sacs in the bow.. Then we will see....
I think the potential of the new X-2 is great.
Other +:
Very great handling! Much storage room!
Great optic!
The new perfect pass gauge is awesome!
