Which boat??? 2012 X-30 OR X-25
Thinking seriously about ordering a new boat. Primary usage will be wakesurfing and just cruising with family and
friends. I currently have an 08 X-2 which has been ok up until now but its not that great for wakesurfing, just ok. I had my mind set on the X-25 until I just saw the new X-30 on the website and the few videos that are in circulation. Now im really confused.....Thoughts????

There hasn't been a lot of info on the surf wake on the new X30, but I'm guess it would be better then the X25.

Do you ski or wakeboard? If you ski, X-30. If you wakeboard, X-25. I have not surfed an X-30, but the X-25 is decent. However, the X-25 I have surfed was not as impressive as the Centurions or Malibus I have surfed. But keep in mind I am a novice surfer at best.

X-30 surf wake looks like it will be hard to beat

That's pretty nice for just 700 lbs of ballast.

With so little information on the X30 out there I would test drive them both thoroughly before making a decision. It's going to be hard to beat the ride of a 25, but it's no sportscar when it comes to handling, whereas they're pitching that as a strongpoint of the 30. It's also going to be hard to beat the stock wakeboard wake of the 25. 30 will probably be easier to trailer. I think the price difference is going to be significant too.
Plus, you can fork pickles with one, whereas the other would be point(less) |

That's just what I've been told by 'williamstown' - he had a star which is within 50lbs of the 30's dry weight and he moved to a 25 and said that noticeably didn't trailer as well.
