    Well yes Mastercraft should be up there somewhere but by far aren't the best. I have ridden the Mastercraft X Star, X2, Supra, Air Nautique but by far the Malibu Wakesetter outweighs these or so I always thought, then tried their sister, Axis A22 … this has the best wake in the world! Not only the size of a mountain but sculptured like the Malibu's! Awesome. It officially has the most ballast out of any boat on the market … says something! Wakeboard boat through and through.

    i own a 09 san 210 my dad owns a 08 x star and there is no comparison the 21 foot nautique puts up a better wakeboard and surf wake no question when loaded up with an extra 1000 lbs of ballast they both throw up a great wake but my san has the best wake on the lake and thats not just my opinion

    Pretty sure Mastercraft has about 12 boats that should be on this list…this must be 2-11 because X-Star IS #1

    X-star has the best wake bar none..everyone else is second..everyone who says they don’t hasn’t hit a double up from that hull…

    The best thing about riding around in a Super Air Nautique is the fact that you are riding around the lake on SUPER AIR NAUTIQUE. It is a great feeling knowing that you are on one of the most expensive, popular wakeboard boats out there. The same feeling goes with riding around in a x-star. People think you like a pro wakeboarder or something if you get towed around in boats like these. Wakesetters are too common now. Every rich guy with a escalade on 24's is towing a wakesetter now. Kind of sucks it gets that dush bag image now, considering it kicks the best wake out there. Remember, always buy American!

    Centurion def deserves some credit. These guys have been around forever, and continue to top the charts. Mastercraft is def a status symbol, but Centurions are high up there, also-and always have been. Mastercraft is overpriced. The same people that rush out for the iphone4 are the same type of people that pay retail for a mastercraft. Its a status symbol. Anyone notice how supreme nor calabria nor sanger made the cut? The tige and Centurion are my favorites on the list. Super Air Nautique is another status symbol, but after riding behind one all summer I dont see what all the buz is about. You can get the same featuers in a different boat for much less. The wake was great, but didn't blow my mind.

    I have owned several ski and wakeboard boats and Scooter is off the mark. Without a doubt Mastercraft makes the best. I have an X2 and will buy an X45 this year. Amazing ride, room, wake and quality. You pay, but its worth it! Nothing turns heads or rides better period.

    I can believe that Master Craft didn't make the list. The people who are saying that they are surprised Master Craft isn't on here, is because they don't own a wake boat, or have never owned anything but a Master Craft.

    XLV is a 24" ft boat by moomba. Come on guys these are all 24 ft models the X-star is 23 ft.

    Malibu boats are the best overall built boats out there. Total fit and finish os great, motor strength – 8.1 450hp, technology, wakemaking, and ride comfort. The Wakes my 247 makes are out of this world and can be dialed in to your own wake setting with Maliview.. Got to love technology out in the water.

    I've skied behind many boats and the Super Air Nautique is by far the best wake. However the Malibu Wakesetter is next in line.

    ya, i've always been a Nautique fan, cause thats what i ride behind all the time, but Mastercrafts X-80 is definatley the biggest wake boat out there, its just over 28 feet… ridiculous! haha it even has 2 seperate engines!!! lol

    everyone knows what the flagship boat is for mastercraft; the x-star. No need to promote the number one brand in wakeboarding.

    moomba is not on here because they are essentially the budget versions of supras and given the title and intentions of this article that wouldn't make much sense. idk about mastercraft though, they should definitely be in here

    No Mastercraft, no Moomba??? JUNK!

      FYI, Skiers Choice makes Supra and Moomba… and Moomba is there entry level line, not a flagship boat that could compete with any of these boats listed! Moomba does not even have a 24' boat.

      The X-55 could be Mastercraft's "flagship" boat for 2010. it is a whopping 25 ft 5 in and weighing in at 5150 lbs DRY i think it overshadows even these behemouths…and reigning in at $97,560 base, optioned out can reach $120k! But then theres the X-80, which is just over 28 ft, has twin 375 hp 6 L V8s, 6200 lb dry weight and a sticker price of $164,995!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What!?!? yup….
      The most comparable boat for the few shocased here is the X-45, their 24 ft $76k boat. The X-Star is also comparable in price, $74k, but at 22 ft may be undersized against these flagship boats.
