We bought a Tige 22iR three years ago.
Our impression of most the Wakeboard boat builders are they just re-packaged ski boats with decades old designs and pass them off as new design wakeboard boats.
Existing hulls from pre-wakeboard days production for years that simply just went through a graphics and name change.
Most will only do about 38 to 48 mph, and most give a very rough ride because they are mostly flat bottom for skiing.
The bigger V's looked too much like Bayliners and turned us off.
We bought the Tige' because it was a new-dedicated-for wakeboarding-hull.
Can't say it was any better than the rest, but the ride was nice, and it was wider, and it really held it's value, and turned nicely.
The wake sucked, as does with most wakeboard boats to be honest with you.
Ya dont want a foamy small wake,, and to be real,, most wakeboard boats give you just that.
The galvanized plow that bolts to the back throws a good wake that some are now using, but a few of our friends have bottomed them out and it annihilated their boats, and the put the skier at risk.
I didn't like the attitude from the Tige employees,, but I understand that's kinda the arrogant norm for the Ski / wakeboarding community of builders.
Ya meet some really wooden people.
Most the builders we felt, we lying to us about the history of the design of the boat they were featuring as a wakeboard boat, except Tige'.
They all lie about the competition as well.
Not sure if I'd buy another one,, dedicated wakeboard boats are very limited in what you can do.
That prop hangs down and draft and depth is always on your mind.
Go for price and resale and if you feel comfortable in it, but most of all, can you stand the ride, and does it in fact put up a big clean (no foam) wake?
And dealer service?
The foam is a BFD as skills improve.
