Its sad isn't it? Spoilt brat some would say!

Don't get me wrong, I'll ride behind anything (literally!), but when paying club prices, which seem to vary between £70-£125 I like to make sure there's a boat worth riding involved... Riding is getting so expensive these days that I just like to do my homework... especially after visiting princes and getting ripped off to ride behind a ski nautique 206 which was truly horrendous. When talking about such a large wedge, plus driving time/costs etc I think that honestly its pretty fair to get picky.

Give me a Super Air (original shape), 2001, x1, or x5 any day of the week and I'll happily pay £100 quid an hour all day long...

TowerBoy - go to Oxford

It's about 1 hour 15 I reckon from Bristol, X2 (x1 shape) with extra tanks fitted above the standard.

Only 3 slots per hour, so you actually get a full 15 minutes on the water, and good coaching and you are literally guaranteed flat water as it's so sheltered

Could be tempted by Oxford... never visited and would defo like to.

Jay - I'm all over riding with you behind the 2001, seems like it'd be my perfect wake... just need to find an excuse to be in your neck of the woods!

Right, so decisions made - tomorrow hit middle moor hopefully then Oxford within the next fortnight. Dry Suits a'hoy!

Dude, don't forget you have an open invite for a tow behind Bob... Here's a piccie of Ali from 3 weekends ago and we're planning to leave the boat in until mid November...

I'll look at the tides and see what we can do.

Cheers Jeremy - Just let me know when and where and I'm in - you've got my number

Would love to try out the mighty X30!

I'm settled in Bristol now and finally have my new board and suit here so am ready to rock...
