Recommendation: WAKEBOARD

OVERVIEW
The aerospace engineering and symmetrical precision that went into the state-of-the-art design of the Revo 6.7 becomes abundantly clear with just one look at its unique styling and lines. But what may not be so clear is that this wakeboard-friendly V-drive shares a hull with the three-event-focused GTR 22, making it just as suitable for recreational skiing as it is for wakeboarding. The Revo's refusal to be pigeonholed is what makes it such an appealing option for multisport families who want Gekko's caliber of performance combined with cutting-edge style.

PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
Gekko's aptly named Revo series was designed in a completely digital environment, using aerospace engineering for symmetry that's precise down to one thousandth of an inch. It's built with an extremely high freeboard and a wide 102-inch beam for solid handling through rough water and a feeling of safety for passengers.

For families that like to cross over between riding and skiing, the Revo 6.7 doesn't disappoint. Not only does the handling and tracking provide a solid pull, but the wake is surprisingly good for both water sports. Open-water skiers who swerve at 15 to 28 off will appreciate the easily crossable wakes, excellent for a boat this size. Load the factory ballast and slow the boat down to 22 mph, and the Revo produces moderate-sized wakes with nice shape for all riders.
