2.0 is the best known brand, and I believe sold th first two tower system, but the bro in a box or bro2go TM, has been out almost just as long. Serves its purpose also. I don't know which brand or model is best, but sesitec is not American owned and I do not believe American made either. Just sayin. I do like sesi's wireless controller though. _________________ "I said take me to the sea, cause that is where I want to be. I said take me to the sea and let my mother bury me." Buck-0-Nine |

That thing is horrible, the side by side cable is the worst idea ever. Even more for us skaters caus we have a habit of falling a bit more. As soon as the handle shoots free from your hand the cable will entangle itself and you have to stop and untangle it.
get a 2.0 (: |

texasT, depends if you want a high end boat that will throw out a big wake with a good shape, not any "boat" can do that. That might not be the number one choice of all wakeskaters out there though.
mojo, its made outside the states so it must suck... sure its great to buy from your own country, but not when the quality isn't there. |

Ya I know but your comment about a boat with a good shape is kindof not relevant since boats make wakes but 2.0 systems can't. So why would you need to buy a boat for 40k with the most perfect wake if you're gonna just buy a 2.0 with no wake. So you can buy/make a lemons and save tons _________________ You had me at meat tornado. -Ron Swanson |

wakenation has got the little bro version of this. its like impossible to put tension in the line before starting, it sucks to turn around on and theres always alot of slack in the cable, so after someone falls, the line slingshots up and wraps around the cable. it's fun to screw around on and sick for surface stuff, but besides that, it's just ok though haha
I honestly prefer the system 2.0's because they're just all-around better two tower cables. |
