I noticed you can't select the graphite color for the tower for a G3.5 for the 2020 models.  You can select grey for the GX.  I have seen some 2020 models with a G3.5 tower in graphite but not in the builder.

I was able to choose graphite for the tower just now.

Dude better hide his daughters!

Tell me that family is not every 20 something single guys that's into skiing/boarding wet dream to marry into!

As a father of 4 daughters, 18 - 27 (only one of which is married), I taught my girls how to love the boat, ski, board, surf, as well as ride dirt bikes and love camping.  I've told them all that their future husbands owe me big.

Mmmh, maybe if they had the mythical M240..... And no one in their 20's ski's anymore...

You should check out collegiate waterskiing.  No such thing as collegiate wakesurfing...

[ahopkins22LSV]

Right... no one in their 20’s skis.

You are wrong, center pylon and tower are in the same position as mine

I was referring to UWSKier's  mock-up.  That tower would be redonk.

The rendering he posted from the Malibu boat builder? That is what I am referring to as well.

Yours, too - with the graphite tower.  The tower is well behind the "industry exclusive, but old skool" center pylon.

What are you talking about? I was commenting on how you said the tower would limit you to 15 off. I said you are wrong and posted a video of me skiing 32 off. Is the tower mounted behind the pylon? Yes but you can still easily ski without issue up to 32 and 35 off as I’ve posted in this thread and multiple times in other VTX threads. You are just continuing to state your opinion with no factual backing while other post actual facts that you are ignoring.

2020 LSV's are up on the Malibu website. nothing that the crew didn't already know. but they do show a pic of the Stern Thruster and the new Tuscan Gold gel scheme.

Just had to add to the mix. Wakeboarding isn't gone yet! Also, any/all drone footy in this is mine. Pretty proud of it. Best years of my life and the best friends made.

Same boat.  Updated engines, steering wheel, Malibu logos.  Slightly better wakes due to lighter engines.  Better power.

But it's not all new. Only the engines and steering wheel are new.
