Sounds like maybe your friend didn't do what you did, and ask for some advice from the people who know the most about the proper set-up. That would be best coming from owners. Too often times even dealers don't take the time to dial in a boat before a demo, so it will show in its best capabilities. I've demo'd a '17 F24 that have been experimented with by our local dealer for many hours, and the surf wave, and the wakeboard wake are both beyond description. Massive, deep, long, and so much push I watched a smaller Malibu get almost airborne trying to cut through the wake. But our dealer will tell you it did take some time to learn how to set things up for the optimum performance.
Probably ought to try an arrange another demo with your local dealer, but be sure to have the key settings in hand when you go out.
