There's a pair of RE SXX 12's on CL here for 175. I think I may buy them for my truck and see if Bruizza was right about them pounding. I'll probably throw my alpine PDX 1000.1 on them if they're still available
Put them in the right box and give them enough power and I guarantee they will!!
Yikes, ragboy blasted Dave's awesome all over the internet. That sucks because now everyone knows what he paid if he even decides to sell on here later...
If he posts here to sell it, it might get link back to the budget thread.
I do love the viva tho, very smooth and when I do get launched off it its awesome. Im pretty sure Im just not locking out my legs which is making my jumps out of control and really flat. The Ronix Cell boots are awesome tho on it.
just keep working that progressive edge and line tension. when your first learning you want to go big.. and tend to flatten out. but sounds like your on the right track for sure.
been riding a slingshot kine this year.. finding as I get older a like a nice big sweet spot in the middle for softer landings.. but its got great pop off the wake too.
Dave Rusch from Lake Tahoe was one of the attendees in 2010 and was looking to get a great board and his own wakesurf boat. In the end he wasn't ready to drop the coin for a new wakesurf boat so he spent some time doing research and asked me for my thoughts on some good used boats he could get a at a decent price. Dave is goofy footed and most of his friends are regular so a great wake on both sides was a must. I gave him some recommendations and on my short list was a used Tige 22v. I had seen others make a great wake with this boat and they can be found on craigslist or other places at a fair price. Well dave found an AMAZING deal and we just went out this weekend with him and this boat throws an incredible wake on both sides regardless of what he paid for it. Here are a couple pictures of the boat.
Pretty good lookin' boat right? So what did he pay for it? Here are a few shots of the wake. Here is a chase shot of Dave riding goofy:
You can see it has plenty of room for a family and plenty of room for boards. So how much did he pay for it?
$17,500
How cool is that? And only 150 hours. Deals can be found! Dave put in his own ballast system and put in a cross link system for quick side to side transfer like we have and it works great. Dave will have to post more detail on his system. I believe he reproped the boat and added a "mud" flap to help keep the wake clean and cut his swim deck a bit. I think that's it, though, for surf mods. All but ballast and prop are simple, do it yourself, inexpensive mods.
Make sure you ask Dave about his setup. He is still tweaking like we all do, of course.
