2020 23ZX Promo

[cnote]

I want this.

on topic of wave, i do wonder how locked in it really is? i mean sometimes i like to tinker with the wave esp when we break out the longboard. assume still some level of flexibility like taps3?

I just wonder how much better the wave actually is with the new tabs. Think these could be retrofit for a ZX1?? Looks like some are suggesting improved yaw which may lead to a better wave. Anyone have any first hand experience?

As elevated said, you will only notice a slight difference in the wave. It is mainly just function. Look at all the threads on this forum about people asking for help on what #s to put TAPS and Surf plates on. With the new Go system, that will basically go away. Good, consistent wave every time. Less susceptible to weight changes in the boat. Maybe not a huge deal for people here since we are mostly all owners and have our boats dialed in, but speaking from personal experience. Trying to describe TAPS3 to a first time surf boat buyer (or first time boat buyer period) could be challenging to say the least.

Of course they COULD be retro'd, but really doubt the parts to do so will be made readily available.

MC threatened legal action to Tige for the use of a number after the letter "X". Its a change, but it'll catch on quick. They will "rebrand" the call out across the ZX and RZX lines. It'll be just fine....

I know this is petty, but why is Tige's branding team so messed up? First we re-label the Z series to be R series. Then we name the ZX3 to the 23ZX. They seem to be scatter brained. I also wish they would discover the other 23 letters in the alphabet. Maybe they are still gun shy since the ASR??

Johnnie, this is probably a rumor but I heard something about MasterCraft claiming they own The letter X with numbers after it(X24, X46 etc). If that is the case it would explain why this ended up the 23ZX instead of a ZX3. I am looking forward to our first load of 2020s coming shortly. Thinking the R23 needs a lake test

EDIT, dang, safety beat me to it.

I believe they didn’t go with ZX3 due to MC making a stink about the names being so similar to theirs.

Haha thats what I am afraid of. Was hoping I wouldn’t want to upgrade so soon, but with a 3rd child on the way, why not go a little bigger? At least that’s some of the reasoning I’ll use if I decide to lol.

I’ll be able to crawl all over this thing tomorrow evening, Thursday and Friday morning, and I can’t wait. My only concern is this boat making me want to trade in my ZX1 for one lol. I’ll be bringing my ZX1 along so I’ll have a good comparison. Maybe I can just upgrade my Taps3 to the new style.

You will see a slight diff in wave shape, but really its functionality.

The 20s have some neat stuff that you guys will see that goes beyond the software. The new Tower switch location, the keyless ignition just to name a few. Really really neat stuff on the way.

Been a long time coming, sucks I have had to keep my mouth shut. Its a great system and I think everyone will be beyond pleased.

As for the system. Yes the system will be on all 2020s. We have a few Rs in Utah that have the system and its lights out.

Get by your dealer and check them out.

Dang, sounds pretty killer, especially after dealing with my actuators failing, and just counting trips until it happens again. Hopefully there will be a way to retrofit them on to older boats by then.

Specs and info are up on Tige.com

I'm one of the lucky few that have been in this boat, it performs amazing. The new Go-Surf system is super easy to use which will make dialing in your wave simple.

A lot of new upgrades and options coming as well, but I won't spill all the beans!
