Check out a water craft factory Vision. I haven't rode many a/m's but thats the one where immediately I felt like a better rider, and I do the same kind of riding you do minus the aerials. But you can ride it fast and hard and to make it pearl on a wave face you gotta really really want to eat doodoo
Help recommend me a hull

The question I would ask yourself is when you are riding at the lake are you only wake chasing and carving or do you want to flip without any assistance, as I personally have found flips off a boat wake vs off your own setup wake, are a completely different thing.
My hull is a flatwater hull and IMO if you are going for a flatwater flip a flatwater hull makes this alot easier than a surf hull (surf hulls are normally a "heavier" layup, therefore increasing weight, more weight = more power and/or skill needed to flip (in my experience), surf hull will probably do it but flatwater flips are kinda what flatwater hulls are made for.
Yes a flatwater hull wont be ideal in the surf but if you are there 5 days of the season it may not bother you that much, but something to keep in mind is flatwater hulls are normally a "lighter" layup which can make them prone to damage from extreme height drops in the surf.

With assistance off a boat wake I think I’m going to with an M1. I eventually want a 1000-1200cc power plant in it which will really help if I want to flat water flip it. 155mag eventually, oem 155 until I save up enough funds.
