    Well, it's a lot like snow skiing but the snow is melted. Then again, when I was at Winter Park, all the snowboarders kept asking me, "what's this thing you are referring to as snow skiing?"

    Waterskiing is what wakeboarders would do if they had any intestinal fortitude, talent, and were fearless. Since it is hard, not many of the current generation will do it.

    Couldn't agree with the article more!
    I water ski with friends who have a 2008, 2000 & 1998 Malibu Response / Echelon and I would say that my Outback wake is very close to theirs! Plus the extra room is always a plus!

    I also find the wake smiler to the current '12 MC 197.
    ..but not like that of the '12 malibu response... I gotta say, the '12 Malibu response has an awesome wake.
