I actually use "Fin Tweaking" in work to describe spending unending hours trying something that you are sure will make a difference to no benefit. We run an online marketing company and no one skies but everyone knows what "Fin Tweaking" is. Sorry for the distraction from serious and beneficial conversation

Hi Surfing is going to be the challenge. The only one I can think of to give all 3 would be a Malibu Response with a Wedge. Draw is way under 2, but with wedge down you can surf. The only other thing would be to convert it to a closed cooling system to handle the salt. Hope that helps

35 off pass at 36 hard turn and crack (lucky only the ski). If anyone has one of these that is not using it I'd love to buy it off you. FYI - that is actually the size. The left tip of the ski is a couple of inches longer than the right tip. Thanks

I am currently on EVO Fluid motion front and back, for about 6 years. I initially was on Venom then animals. I ski 34/36 28 - 38. In between i tried Goode (good boots) but the fluid motion allowed me to convert to double hard shells and not miss a beat and eventually skiing much better (PB on EVO). It has saved my lower body parts several times with timely releases. I'm not saying any boots are fool proof. But these were some of the easiest transition boots I've tried, and has helped me with my technique.

@jrs I ski on a reflex hybrid - love it. Interested if you know the difference between the 2. Karma vs Reflex Hybrid RRF circa 2015.

Guys, you're missing it - it depends if your right foot forward or left foot forward on which way the rope twist. I'm right foot forward and my wife is left foot forward and they twist opposite directions. Kidding, this thread was such a tangent had to add.

@Stevie Boy I have a thin Schnitz fin on a reflex and to manage it I took a pie tin and cut 3 small square pieces and folded it over the fin to fit snug in the slot. Works great, done it on 3 skies now. able to adjust as normal (Reflex is very sensitive to changes such as water Temp). May work here. or not.

@Horton - amazing - just sent yo a pm. Thanks.

Just starting the season on my favorite ski, doing very well, hit 5 buoy at 36 mph 32 off and crack my ski. Lucky no lasting injury. If anyone has one of these that is not using it I'd love to buy it off you. FYI - that is actually the size. The left tip of the ski is a couple of inches longer than the right tip. Thanks

Has anyone tried taking the plastic covers off? Fan belt and the red top cover to allow for better air flow?

Is there someone from Malibu able to give some details here? Was looking at a new one, but now have some concerns as we're on a shortish lake. I checked MalibuCrew and didn't see anything.

As many have said, Malibu diamond hull has a really nice wake, and add a wedge, that some of them have, and you have a wake or surf boat. You can't imagine how it changes the wake. Depends on the need thou; if it's for just wakes or for a larger boat for more people. Good luck.
