The 2002 Malibu Response LX/LXi is a highly respected, direct-drive tournament ski boat renowned for its exceptionally flat, soft wakes and precise handling. Built on the performance SV23 Diamond hull, it serves slalom skiers exceptionally well while retaining versatile open-bow seating and storage.
Because of its tournament pedigree, it pulls some of the best world-record slalom courses, but it remains highly adaptable. By deploying the optional Malibu Wedge, it can pull a decent wakeboarding session, though it truly shines as an out-and-out ski and barefooting boat
