Just go wakeboarding. You can go way bigger, way more style, way safer for your knees and your shins won't get smashed from the other ski. Just my two cents from a dedicated wakeboarder/freeskier.

Peep the Rodeo 5 off the triple up whip in Harfs section of "Free 4 all" @ 0.43. Ridiculous.

 Won't be seeing something that sick and huge on wakeskis anytime soon.

From my experience with them, which is very limited, I felt like you could not go that big. Even if you cut in pretty hard it did not seem like you could get the same pop as a wakeboard. They were pretty fun for a little bit though. Anyways, wake surfing is just to much fun.

I wakeboard but ive never tried the skis. This one of my concerns because the height you get off the wake depends a lot on your pop with a wakeboard and it seems it would be a lot harder to get a good pop on wakeskis. They are probably a lot more fun at a cable park than behind a boat. and I agree with you about wake surfing
