    I know the surf plates are for surfing, but I wonder if they would help the ski wake. I also know they won't deploy over ~15mph so this is something that cannot actually be tested. But similar to the new "Go Home" or "Launch" feature. They could deploy to help plane without dragging the skier to far, then stay deployed at 10% or so to help keep the transom out of the water. Might be a way to turn a surf/wake boat into a 3-in-1 sports boat.

    Just bored at work and thinking with my keyboard.

    I'm sure skiing is not a priority for the manufacturerrs right now. Out of the 165 homes on our lake, only two families ski regularly. Rest is split between surfing and pontooning for the lack of better term. Someone would have to be a really good and dedicated skier to dish out $100K++ for a good ski boat. Much easier to convince mama to spend the $$ if she and the kids will participate LOL.
