Wdk riptide or wdk rip??

[Jimmy Nedwick]

Hey guy im thinking about buying a wdk rip or wdk riptide complete ski. They both have a 701 in them and both are in good condition. What would you guys recommend for a beginner flatwater freestyle ski. are the hulls pretty much the same?? also they are both the same price its just the riptide is a little cleaner. Let me know your guys opinions. Thanks, Jimmy

pics or link to either or them? I had a rip, it was a really fun ski. It is definitely built for flatwater, but that didnt keep me from chasing boats and taking it to the surf where it was a lot of fun. I havent ridden a riptide, but I have wanted to! I miss my rip! If they are both the same price, I would go with the riptide since its a newer design.

id go with the riptide on the right.

Looks like it is even smaller, dont think it would work for any boat chasing........

Its not, its actually longer. I think the top deck is still the same as the rip, but the bottom is longer and i think the pump is raised up more in the tray.

Tray (Footholds) look closer to the front.
