    Darn the snow starts earlier in Washington state. Still waiting to get mine winterized after my warranty work is completed by dealer here in the Virginia

        Doesn’t normally start this early. It’s crazy!

            What do you guys use the gs22 for? Ski, boarding, surfing, tubing, cruising? I really like the GS series and the 22 is the right size for my needs but I haven't demo'd one yet. I did demo the 20 and really liked it, but I really like the rear facing seats in the 22.

            Great looking boat!

              Well, we got our 22 in June and use it for everything. There are various threads on here that express views on how good the wake, or lack thereof, is for an activity, but we have found it to be very, very good for everything. We ski in the morning, then surf/wakeboard in the afternoon and cruise in the evening. Put about a 100 hours on it from July 4th weekend to mid October (Carolinas have a long season!). We love it, and my spouse loves the rear facing seats too. But we are not experts at any one activity, just enthusiastic. We have surfed behind a G23 and skied behind a Prostar and those boats are both better at their individual specialties, but we are quite comfortable having one boat do everything, even if its at a slightly less expert level. Frankly, couldn't be happier.

                Thank you!! We use our gs22 for wakeboarding, skiing, surfing, tubing and cruising! This boat is awesome! The ski wake is very good, we go at 30mph at 15 off and it is very smooth. Surfing is good too. We surf at 10.6 mph 50 percent full belly and port and starboard full, 4ncrs 3nss. Not sure if this is the best setting for surfing but has worked for us. I wakeboard behind it and it is great! We had someone come out and ride that was really good he said that it was similar to the g21 wake. Both 20 and 22 have rear facing seats as I remember. If you have anymore questions about the boat feel free to ask! I am happy to help!

                  We are same!! We got ours in August, and have put 70 hours on it!! Awesome boat for sure. We have used it to mid October too. We ski in the morning and wakeboard and surf in afternoon. Already ready for next year.

                    Great pics - very nice looking boat! I'd love some input....I'm wrestling with buying a GS 22. I really like the size and quality but wrestling with the surf wave. Have any of you guys used some fat sacks or have plug and play ballasts? Does it need more weight than what came from the factory? We are surfers and skiers - and cruise around. I thought the boat really handled well. Just not sure about the surf wave. Help.

                      We love the boat, we put 88 hours on it since August. We’ve surfed behind bigger surf waves and our boat, you have to put more weight on the front foot then on other boats with bigger waves. My wife is 125 pounds and I’m 160 and we are both able to do it. We haven’t tried fat sacs yet. Also it is a longer wave then height so you can fall back more. We had a mastercraft prostar 190 and the ski wake is better on the gs22. We found the the best ski wake at 30 mph is 15 off form the pylon. Couldn’t be happier!

                        Thanks for the feedback. I ordered our new GS 22 right after our chat. Just got it delivered and finished the break-in period. Love it. I added 750 fat sacs as well and this truly is a do-it-all boat. Can't wait for it to warm up - but that won't be long in Texas.
