All-new from the hull up for 2016, the 20 VTX is known as the crossover king, recognized as the best ski/ride/surf boat on the market—and now it’s even better. Ideal for the those who love wakeboarding and—surfing as much as waterskiing, the VTX fits easily into the average garage, and a removable center pylon maximizes skiing performance. With a few quick taps on our dual-touchscreen Command Center, you can fill up to 1,250 pounds of hard-tank ballast, 1100 lbs of Plug N Play ballast, set the bigger, hydraulic Power Wedge II for 1,500 more pounds of ballast, and engage our revolutionary Surf Gate to create the perfect surf wave.

We also listen to our athletes, and they couldn’t be happier. Our pro team is amazed at what the reinvented 20 VTX can do.”
Malibu athletes Thomas Degasperi, Phil Soven, and Brian Grubb took the 20 VTX out for an epic session and reported back. “The new VTX performs like a tournament ski boat, but I also love to surf, and the wake is incredible for a 20-footer,” says Degasperi. Soven agrees: “The VTX is just the right mix when you’re looking at a crossover wakeboard boat, delivering great wakes for all ability levels from joe to pro.” And Grubb says, “You won’t believe this wave coming from a 20 foot boat. It’s so big and clean you’d think it was from a 23 footer.”
