Freestyle x2 or wb1?

[Klereue]

Hey guys, I'm looking for a sit down for the gf. She's got a stand up but wants something fun to cruise around on and also so family members can take it for a spin. her dad is a bigger guy (280ish) i'm leaning towards the wb because it sounds more stable and I would think her dad might be able to ride it? What are your thoughts? Sorry if this is asked a lot, but I couldn't find any good wb vs x2 posts.

If her dad fell of a WB in deep water, i doubt he would be able to get back on.

if he is 280lbs... and has a lot of experience riding than he might beable to ride the b1.... the b1 is not stable at all...

I'd say neither. Have you ridden any of them? Your father in law will have problems getting up on the Blaster and hate the X2 for lack of punch if it isn't fully modded. Look at one of the smaller sit-downs, not the battle-ships they sell nowadays.

I have not ridden either of them, thanks for the help guys. maybe we'll have to look at another option

I have a blaster for the wife and a 750zxi for friends and family, it's the perfect set up for use. The 750zxi's are cheap and pretty quick stock.

sounds like she would be better off getting a B2 for the friends and fam to ride. Still fun(ish) and it is relatively small....compared to the battleships you see out there today.

i know a lot of people with that ZXI both the 750 and the 1100 they are small handle pretty well and quick especially the 1100. If you have the extra cash and are looking for something a bit on the faster side go with the ultra 150 that thing moves and is fun in the surf.

^^Agreed 100%. also look into the early GP hulls with the 760 motor

 

[Klereue]

Awesome, thanks guys. I'll be keeping an eye out for a b2 or zxi

 

[kieran79]

Yes b2 is what your after

B2, unless u want bigger and more power, then gp800r or gp1200

B2 is probably best. B1 might be ok for gf but not dad. Certainly not the x2. Mine has a pontoon kit so anyone can ride it but All x2 are a headache
