Malibu engineers spend endless time and consideration in crafting our surf system, Integrated Surf Platform I.S.P.™ and are honored to receive this acknowledgement. I.S.P. is the sum of seven great parts that come together to produce the best wake in the world. To break it down, Surf Gate™ makes your waves, Quad Hard Tank™ Ballast System makes your waves big, Power Wedge™ III makes your waves huge, Surf Band™ lets your customize your waves while you’re riding, Monsoon V8 engines give you the power behind the fun, our Performance Hulls are tailored to create the perfect wave, and the Malibu Command Center™ brings you 12” of touch screen to craft the perfect wave from the dash.

At 23 feet, the Malibu Wakesetter 23 LSV is the perfect size to make memories on the water with up to 15 people. The 23 LSV generates an absolute wall of water when you want it, but can also create approachable wakes for beginners and even mellow slalom wakes. With a classic traditional bow look, the 23 LSV is the essence of the original Malibu brand and still a legend in the industry.
