isn't the RXT a 2 seater (correct me if i'm wrong)? I don't know about where you ride, but here you have to have a minimum of 3 people total. Anyways... any specific year?

no the rxp is the 2seater, the rxt is the 3seat edition of the rxp, same engine and everything i think, just 3 seater instead of the racing 2seater. i personally dont like going behind the rxt wake, i like my honda wake and my buddys yamaha wake, but its personal preference, if you are looking for a ski you will have to go behind different ones to see if you like the wake shape and size and all that.

yeah i knwo i have a yamaha vx deluxe and its real nice for skating but a buddy is thinking about getting a ski and he was thinking about the rxt and i didnt think it was very good for skating its more of a racing ski but i just wanted some opinions...thanks

i ride behind an rxt, its pretty good...like nothing spectacular, but if you ride it right it can give you a nice pop off it from inside out

I rode behind an RXT last year a few times and I wasn't really that impressed. I like the wake shape in the GTX models a lot more. the RXT wake just seems awkward for skating and has a pretty wierd shape IMO

the 06 rxt supercharged three seater is where its at boys. i love it so much even more than the wake edition.

s34n, i was curious about the wake shape to when i first was looking at seadoos but the seadoo sales rep told me that they all make the exact same wake. (well the gtx, wake, rxt)

CarterOG308, you might be right. Im used to riding behind the older GTX's which probably have a different hull and wake shape then the new ones. Kinda sucks to hear that though - i've never ridden behind a wake edition but if its got the same wake sa the RXt - thats whack!

s34n, yea i think the only thing that makes the seadoo a "wake edition" is the color scheme, the pylon, and the board racks.
