So I just bought a 95 (correction, it's a 96) wave-venture 700 and I was wondering where to get joystick type ski-pole... like the sea-doo wake has. Does anyone sell them? Do you think it can pull welli? Heres a pic or two of the craft... has anyone pulled behind one of these... i sure hope it has enough power, I got a great deal on her.

How much did you get it for?

i wondered about the same thing for my 2007 GTI..but apparently you have to counter turn each time the rider cuts out with it. some people say that the tow point is much more efficient and CHEAPER

You should be able to stabilize it better with some larger sponsons and you can always bolt on some power if necessary.

Nice find. Paint it though. Wink

Just use a eye hole type deal. I have the pylon on my 06 wake edition and it's useless really. Only thing that's beneficial is it keeps the rope away from the motor a little better.

Keep your money and buy a speaker system for your ski.

Surely I jest;)

I just wanted to put it in the sig for a few hours. It's too big to keep. No pun intended.

thefunky31, $1500.00, been garaged and winterized and maintained its' whole life by one owner. Seemed reasonable.

NotSoBueno, I agree that it's ugly, but I work at a large format print shop, so I am going to wrap it. I can make it look like anything I want Very Happy

One_Wadey, I was wondering about that. I definitely don't want to crack the glass...

So, should I have any trouble getting up and pulling behind this baby? It's only a 700, so I was wondering about deep water starts and such.

wakeshredder, Seems like a good deal. Im looking for something in that price range too. I was going to get a nicer one for like 4k but the money isnt there right now.

wakeshredder, didn't realize it was you ...... wrap that sucker & make it look HOT. You should have enough power to pull a rider....do you have to have a spotter where you ride? As I mentioned before, you can always bolt on some power.

NotSoBueno, spotter, no problem. Who sells performance kits for these babies? I think that the sponsons are a great idea...

I'd start my search on ebay.

wakeshredder, i have the same jetski it will pull you up fine, you just have to go a solid 24 to keep a consistent speed!!!

damn that's awesome, i still have a little over $2k for a ski but I don't think i can upkeep the storage/maintainice fee. Plus I dont live in a house to keep it in a garage, but there's always winching > Very Happy
