Any rumours about a Supra Wake System?

Looks like a pretty simple system to retrofit older boats as well.

Not to argue or support SC, but yeah I will agree they are behind the curve a bit, but 5 years??? Malibu offered Surfgate on 2013 boats. Nautique offered NSS on 2013 boats. Last I checked it is currently November of 2013.... They may be trim tabs, but functioning different. Look at the way the ram comes in. It is opposite from a standard trim tab and allows the tab to go down 90 degrees. It allows you to form different styles of a wave as well. It also allows for switching from side to side. Not trying to be a Supra Fan Boy, but the reality is it looks like they have come up with a good system and everyone seems to agree. My friends are Malibu, MC, Supra and Nautique owners and everyone feels as if this could be an improvement over other systems, or at worst case, on an equal playing field. I will put the disclaimer that I have not seen it or surfed it, but I have watched lots of videos and talked to several people.... I will check it out tonight and share my opinions.

I would love to see how the different 21'er from Supra SC, Malibu VLX, Nautique 210 or G21 with the Surf enhancement System are working, the difference and all the stuff. Who has the $ to buy all 3 boats and compare them?

I'm just glad Supra has something. I was happy with the surf tabs on my 2011 Mastercraft, so if it works as well as that system I'll be happy.

Your both off a bit as far as timeline goes.
Until someone can use the system and give us an unbiased user account of how the wave really is i'm not sold.......especially for 100g.
It better be something special for me not to just use the one i made in my back yard!!!!!

I saw it in person on Friday night and like Diggs said, it's more than just a typical trim tab. Aside from the fact that they can go 90 degrees like Diggs said, they also have a very unique shape vs a typical trim tab. it'll be interesting to see what they come up with. especially since basically anything is a "tab" of some sort. So they have to approach it carefully. Probably smart to focus on shaping rather than delayed convergence in light of the Malibu vs Correct Craft lawsuits.

Here are the two pics I snapped on Friday.

2500HD - You are 100% correct that we really can't judge until we see it work. I am hoping it works. I have watched lots of videos and spoke to a lot of people. I am stoked on it and even put down a deposit on a new SC on Friday night after checking it all out at AWS Evening with the Stars.
As far as the timeline goes above, I am 100% accurate. Malibu introduced Surfgate on their 2013 boats. No 2012 Malibu has surfgate unless it was a prototype or homemade system. Nautique also introduced NSS on their 2013 boats, but did allow for retrofitting on 2012 boats, so you may see some 2012 Nautiques with NSS.
