The smallest boat in Malibu’s lineup at 20 feet long and 8 feet, 2 inches wide and with a traditional pointy bow, it’s also the most nimble. Twin tracking fins give it extra grip in corners — no sliding even when it’s whipped around with as much vigor as a jetboat. For 2016 Malibu raised the gunwales a bit to increase freeboard, which really comes in handy when it’s fully loaded with ballast and max wedge. It still sits pretty low in the water, though, so the driver better not crank the wheel too hard when tankered with peeps and jump juice. Some boats handle like a pig when loaded, but we still had good directional control even when plowing up a surf wake at 10 mph. The driver enjoys a new bucket seat that features an optional electrically powered adjustable-height seat pedestal. The lake was calm during our test, but given the VTX’s shallow seven degrees of deadrise, it will probably pound more in large waves than boats with Malibu’s Wake Plus hull. here
Malibu makes it easy for drivers without a lot of experience setting up wakes to nail it, providing a graphic depiction of the shape of the desired wake, be it mellow or rampy, in addition to choosing its size. All this is displayed on the 12-inch MaliView touchscreen display that’s part of the helm’s Viper 2 Command Center. It’s a Bluetooth-compatible system, which allows someone to control it with a smartphone running the free Perfect Pull app. Surfers, while in the act, can use a Surfband wrist remote to control the Wedge, surf direction and boat speed, while simultaneously alerting the driver to any changes. So the driver just finds the shape and size wave he wants, taps the screen and lets the internal computer do his ballast bidding. Lower and to the right is a seven-inch MTC display that replaces all the toggle switches for accessories such as lights, the blower, heat and the bilge, along with the stereo and GPS. An analog control with a large knob makes it easy to change the surf wake from left to right or tweak the speed and wedge without touching the MaliView screen. here
The hardest of the three disciplines to pull off with a V-drive powertrain setup is slalom skiing. Creating a really flat wake is difficult, because instead of having the engine amidships where they are on tournament ski boats, it is in the stern, to provide some ballast. But the 20 VTX’s T-Cut Diamond hull is Malibu’s next-generation variant of the Diamond Hull found on Malibu’s Response TXi, its pure tournament slalom boat (with a big engine hump in the cockpit) that has been used to set four world records. The other hull in Malibu’s lineup is the Wake Plus, used on its 20 MTX, the pickle-forked 20-foot counterpart to the VLX. So how’s its slalom wake at 28 to 32 mph? Far lumpier that the VTX’s. Another slalom plus is the standard removable amidships ski pylon.
So how do you get a world-class wake out of a slalom hull? The wakening process starts with 800 pounds of standard ballast, which will produce tight recreational launch ramps. For maximum potential, there is an option for an incredible 3,000-plus pounds of additional ballast, including a 300-pound bow tank, 1,500 pounds of Plug ‘n’ Play tanks and another 1,500 pounds from its ace in the hole, the Power Wedge II — a plow that drops incrementally to simulate up to three-quarters of a ton of ballast and shape the wake. And Surf Gate II, the latest hydraulic iteration of this innovation, allows surfers to ride either side without heeling the boat far over.
Although the 20 VTX can do it all, its strengths are in slalom and surfing. The standard package comes complete with a cool, dual-axle trailer, and one of the things this package can do is fit nicely into a typical one-car garage. With the tongue folded, its overall length with the swim platform attached is only 22 feet, 4 inches, and with the standard Illusion G3.2 tower folded down, its height is 7 feet, 8 inches, which can usually limbo underneath a standard garage door. here
Over-the-top hinges allow for an increase in storage to create a deeper, wider, longer storage hole than any of its peers. With the luxurious bow and spacious interior, fill your 20 VTX with 11 of your closest friends and family members. [links]

The skiers talked, and Malibu listened. The Short Wing Windshield allows the driver to lean over and have better direct communication with the rider as he or she is getting picked up for the next pull. It also allowed the tower to be moved forward so when a skier is going extra wide on a course, there's no chance of hitting the tower.
Welcome the most intuitive touch screen interface ever offered in tow sports. The mOS (Malibu Operating System) was specially designed to put the information the driver needs in the optimal location with easy to read graphics. Featuring a 30% higher resolution screen with larger color depth, the screen has never looked better. Manual controls have been placed to minimize the driver’s need to take their eyes off the water or the steering wheel.
The Malibu Monsoon M5Di and M6Di were specifically designed for unmatched reliability, durability and torque all while having and better fuel economy and the lowest emissions in the industry. here
