can anyone tell me what brand of tower this is?

Glad I am the first to respond!!!

This is the first generation Metcraft...better known as Metcrap. You can search it on here. it tends to rattle a bit and the board rack positioning is poor. It tends to break underneath the pads, so remove the pads to check the welds. If they are not cracked, they will be at some point.

Gotta echo what TTG said!

I thought the first Tigé tower came out in 1999.

^^They may have. Maybe it was added later, but there is no question that is the original metcrap tower.

Just get a samson edge and be done with it

They didn't come with towers originally, so it was added on later.
I would agree with Bakes5. The Samson edge in red with maybe a tower mounted bimini and lighted rope saver?

What sports will you be doing behind the boat?

Or Just save your money and ride it until it breaks if it even does. Just check all the bolts and make sure they are tight.

^^and the welds!!!!

Well I was going to use it for wake boarding. I'll be sure to check all of the welds and bolts. I just thought they originally came with the boats since I've seen multiple tiges with the same tower. Maybe I'll save up 2400 and get a tower later on but then again this is my first boat!
