@swc5150 how about a thanks to the engineers, designers, and plug builders who do the actual hard work of doing the calculations, the modeling, and the building? The skiers do give valuable input that the engineers need to make these boats happen but they are not responsible for developing the boat beyond skiing behind it and giving an opinion. It's then up to the PD&E guys to figure out what they need into an actual product. I've spent time with all the MC team skiers and think they are all fantastic people, but give credit where it's due. I found Marcus' comment in the press release to be somewhat off putting "Engineering a better wake is less about science and numbers and more about passion, vision, dedication and experience."
So, I would like to thank the MC product development department for their hard work and long hours which have produced this great boat!
