What owners & reviewers say

Based on 8 reviews from across the web

The 22 RZX is Tige's flagship wake sports boat, and the consensus from our owners and expert reviewers is that it earns that title on the water. The surf wave is a standout feature: long, clean, and with genuine drive and height, backed by the TAPS 3 system that gives you a wide range of shape and size adjustments. Wakeboarding and general watersports capability round out a package that owners describe as genuinely versatile, not just a one-trick surf boat.

The interior draws consistent praise for its comfort and user-friendly layout, and the overall package is seen as strong for the segment. Where opinions vary from owner to owner is on fit and finish relative to premium competitors like Nautique, with a few noting the craftsmanship, while solid, sits a step below the top of the market. Resale value is also mentioned as more modest compared to those flagship brands.

Dialing in the best surf wave with TAPS 3 takes some patience and experimentation, particularly at different altitudes or with different rider preferences. A handful of owners have noted occasional electrical gremlins and actuator issues on older model years, though these are generally described as manageable rather than serious.

What owners like

  • Wave quality is consistently praised: long, clean shape with real push and height
  • TAPS 3 system allows meaningful customization of the surf wave
  • Capable across multiple disciplines: surfing, wakeboarding, skiing, and tubing
  • Interior is comfortable, well-appointed, and easy to navigate
  • Generous ballast capacity supports a larger, more developed wave

Tradeoffs to consider

  • Getting the best surf wave from TAPS 3 requires time and setup patience, especially at elevation
  • Fit and finish, while good, is considered more basic than top-tier competitors like Nautique
  • Resale value tends to come in more modestly than some premium brands
  • A few owners on earlier model years mention occasional electrical issues and actuator wear over time
