Is the M220 or 23LSV a Better Fit?

We just had our 2023 M220 out on the water today.  The boat is huge and a huge upgrade over our 2020 23 MXZ.  Handles better, surf wave is better, more free board, and the fit and finish is awesome.  And I got my Speakersox from Jim!!    Now the stereo is a whole different story....lol

Traded a 2019 23 for a leftover 2022 M220.  The freeboard and weight along with the higher quality cabin materials sold us. I can not comment on the surf wave as I haven’t yet been behind the M220. I will say that I am a bigger guy, 245 lbs, and the wave on the 23 LSV had plenty of push for me, even on a skim style board.  

Won’t get to actually drive and surf the M220 until late May here in the Midwest, so my impressions may be too late to help you.

Surfed a brand new M220 in Miami with Miami Wake Academy back in February and regarding the surf wave, I'd describe surf-left is as big a wave as surf-right on a 23 LSV, and surf-right on the M220 is as proportionally larger as the normal difference between surf-left and surf-right.  Hopefully that doesn't sound as dumb as it did typing it out.  That's comparing to a slightly older 23 LSV (2018) that I ride in our crew. 

 

It usually takes me a min to get my bearings on the 23 LSV wave, but I was tossing rope almost immediately out of the water with the M220, and that's after not surfing at all Oct-Feb.  For reference, I'm about 250lbs as well.
