The 2009 Ride Series from Malibu Boats is a pair of boats that need no introduction. These 21 and 23-foot models have been launching the careers of pro riders and pulling armatures toward their best performances for years. Formerly the Wakesetter VLX and the Wakesetter 23 LSV, the 2009 21 and 23 vRides have secured their places in the wakeboarding hall of fame, but they're not ready for retirement yet. These boats have pulled World Class Wakeboard events like Wakestock, the World Wakeboard Championships and the Malibu Open. And in 2009 they are being valued for their ability as much as their enormous feature-set and affordable price. Each Ride Series model offers a host of big wake riding amenities as well as award-winning Malibu-level performance and construction. The illusion X tower, 400 lbs of sub-floor rear ballast, the Ballast Monitoring System (BMS), Precision Pro Speed Control, v-drive configuration and exclusive Ride Series graphics make a home in both of the Ride Series.
