Wakesurfing is expensive!!!!!

**irish1111** · 07-25-2008, 04:09 PM

I just got into wakesurfing a month ago on a buddies boat in Austin and I loved it. So as any impulsive guy would do I bought an 07' LSV loaded with 65 hrs on it and got busy. Im ordering an FAE system and a teak deck and that should do me. Ive already put 15 hrs on her in 2.5 weeks!!! Wakesurfing rocks and my Mobius is a blast.

its also adictive, boat looks great. is the tower powder coated black--sick

It is powdercoated black. The guy I bought her from buys a new loaded boat every year after the 4th of July and I showed up with the cash first........ I had buyers remorse pretty bad until we hit the water, lol. It is truly the best way to spend time with family and friends. Since we bought the boat we have spent more free time together as a family than in the past 2 years. I grew up sailing and this is my first "power boat" should have made the switch years ago. Thanks for the reply will post better pics soon. Great boat youself, by the way.

Great looking boat. Welcome to the Klan.. Just wait, soon you'll be looking to add extra ballast on one side.. wakesurf racks, another board.. BOAT = Bring On Another Thousand!
I have been scheming today on how to move the empty side ballast to the surf side.. gonna make some hose extensions tonight to use the 750 I have on the other side on the surfside!
Jealous of your on water storage!

Man I feel like I'm part of a tribe all the sudden. Thanks for the post. I have a fat sack in addition to the three ballast bags standard. Im still working on that "perfect wake". Im tyring to figure out how to adjust everything to get a longer, less frothy wake.

I agree. The tower looks awesome.

If you think Wakesurfing is expensive don't get into hydrofoiling. You'll be sucked in like the rest of the foilers out there(Yeah you know who you are) I think I've got more money into my Hydrofoil then my Car LOL. To keep in on subject, I was down at our local boardshop looking at what they had left for wakesurf boards. They had a Ronix stage board. Looked like a nice board to learn on. Wide footprint and fairly long board. I've never wakesurfed b4, has anyone ridden this board? How is it? If I get good enough can I spin this one? Or do you have to get like a Hyperlite custom or sumpin in order to spin it. thanks ya'll

Ive got 2 Hyperlite boards, one that is,6'1" and a Broadcast. I like the longboard better, it seems to stay in the wave alot easier, ie: no pumping. The broadcast is a little sketchy for me, it feels like a skim board. Besides the longboard is painted like it belongs on the cover of a J. Denver album....lol.

I have been looking at the stage.. looks stable.. I doubt you can do much for spins on it though..
Does look like a good starter board.. I like the fat/rounded nose for stability.. I get a bit nose heavy sometimes on my LF Venture..

BTW, Evogear.com has blem Stages for $269....shipped

I love the all white, that's what I really wanted. That looks like the docks by Carlos n Charlies. You should come surfing with us one day.
