2017 Wake A20 All the performance you need and nothing you don’t.

Axis A20 Overview Header


AXIS A20 | TECHNICAL KNOCKOUT

Nothing on the water packs as much punch into a 20-foot package as the Axis A20, and nothing can touch its value, either. With its Wake Plus hull and standard 409 foot-pounds of torque, the A20 comes ready to shred. It's easy to trailer and store, yet kicks up an massive wake, especially with our available Auto-Set Wedge. Add the hydraulic Surf Gate and you've got the best wave-making technology available today.

The Axis PSP (Performance Surf Package) incorporated into this Axis A20 provides you with the ability to create your own waves wherever and whenever you want, and control their size, length, shape and speed.

The P.S.P. starts with the Wake Plus hull design engineered for this A20 model. Combine this with wave engineering running surfaces and customised swim platforms. Then, for a bigger wake flip a switch to fill the Hard-Ballast system for wake-creating ballast. Get the fore and aft Plug'n'Play ballast option to add another 570 kgs. for the biggest wake you've ever seen, equip your Axis A20 with the Auto-Set Wedge hydrofoil. Drop the wedge in the water and instantly gain another 455 kgs of wake-generating water displacement. 

Wait until you see how easy it is to turn that wake into an endless, customisable wave for surfing. Drop the Wedge and then flip a switch to activate Surf Gate. That's it. The Surf Gate's high-speed hydraulic actuators let you quickly shift the wave from side to side for regular or goofy styles.

With the P.S.P. and Surf Gate, the driver can dial in the wakes and waves to make the perfect watersports playground for any rider, every time. Here's the big news for 2017: We've made the Surf Band wrist remote available for all Axis boats. Wearing the Surf Band, the rider can control the Surf Gate, speed and stereo volume right from the board.

Also new for 2017 - a striking new dash design with glowing white 3-in-1 gauges gives the cockpit a classic sporty look. There's more function with a new central touch screen that integrates menu navigation, Surf Gate control, speed control and more. A new panel of soft-key switches puts major controls at the driver's fingertips, and new helm and transom remotes for the audio system let the driver or passengers adjust the music.

Axis is Centered on you, providing all the performance you need and nothing you don’t.

"You'll never expect such an incredible wake coming off a 20-footer, but it's for real. The Axis engineers have reinvented this boat from the hull up, and the performance is impressive to say the least." Randall "The Vandall" Harris | Axis Pro Rider

The A20 is even more surf friendly than before without sacrificing the features, performance and value.

The Axis A20 was totally redesigned for 2016 to be even more surf friendly than before without sacrificing the features, performance and value that made this little boat a standout in previous iterations. The A20 is ideal for crews on small waterways who skew more toward the wakeboard and surf side of water sports.

For this small of a footprint, the A20 has a lot to offer in wake performance. The surf wave is especially huge. The A20 was deepened for 2016 to carve out more room in the lounge than ever before. The dash was redesigned for 2016 to simplify the look while maintaining overall function. Essentially, Axis gave a welcome face-lift to a familiar product without slashing functions, like drivability and the Surf Gate toggle switch. Surf Gate makes an uncommonly big wave on the little A20. The surf wave is huge and clean, and you don’t have to move any weight around after your wakeboard is set. The toggle switch is at the dash and creates a wave on either one side or the other when you flip it one way or the other. The A20 is one of the highest-performing budget boats on the water, and since it has coveted Malibu DNA, you’re getting the quality that only comes from a legacy manufacturer.
