    Default New speed based speed control?

    On the new for 2010 page i noticed it lists a new speed based cruise control as standard equipment. Are they talking about perfect pass or is this a new version of moomba cruise that is speed based instead of rpm based?

    It's EZ Cruise that is speed based. I've had both, and I think the speed based is much better. It's most noticeable when turning.

    SWEET!

    That is the #1 reason I upgraded to PP star gazer. The damn Moomba Cruise would bog down and scrub off all the speed when it was RPM based.

    Do u still have to engage it manually each time, or can u preset a speed and it takes over when u get close?

    I wonder if it would just be a plug and play install to switch out the rpm based for the speed based. That is if you could get one for a good price.

    Perfect Pass is plug n' play for the newer Moombas...like around 05-06 and up.

    Yeah I would like to get perfect pass but the $1,000 price tag is whats holding me back especially cause my current moomba cruise works for me it's just kind of a pain to set and making turns sucks.

    I'm just wondering if you could get the new speed based cruise for like $500 or less, if so I think it would be a nice upgrade for pretty decent price.

    Best upgrade for the Moomba is the Perfect Pass. Makes driving effortless especially for drivers who aren't good at mult-tasking (my girlfriend). Don't know about everyone else's boat but my XLV is very sensitive to holding speed and if I want to keep it at 21, it sometimes wants to stay at 20 or go to 22-23. Same with other speeds seems to want to go a little higher or a little lower than what I need for that particular rider. Takes alot of paying attention and fine adjustments. I can hold the speed, it's the other drivers of my boat that can't, so that's where it was a God send in my situation.

    Which perfect pass do you have? stargazer? Did you upgrade to it or did it come with the boat?

    I upgraded to PP Star Gazer this month and I am shocked how much faster my wakebording has progressed. The consistency of the pull is what makes all the difference. It was hard to justify the price but now I know its worth every cent.
