WORLD CLASS BOAT FOR WORLD CLASS PERFORMANCE. The Response LXi is the go to boat for slalom skiing and jumping in the Malibu Open. It’s the boat that World and Malibu Open Champions like Will Asher and Emma Sheers train behind. Other pros, like Drew Ross and Ron Scarpa, use the Response LXi to train and teach, demonstrating the LXi is as advantageous to beginners as it is to the pros. There’s no question, this is the boat you need if you want to improve your performance on the water. The Cut Diamond Hull it sits on is the most popular hull ever created for three- event skiing. Capped by a matching deck and new MH2 frameless windshield, and painted with progressive gel coat graphics, the LXi profile screams performance, while the interior is classic Malibu luxury.
FORM FOLLOWS FUNCTION. Whether you break a world record, or reach a new level of competence on the slalom course, the Response LXi is designed to help you realize your potential, no matter what skill level. A true, three-event boat, it will instill the confidence for you to keep growing as a competitor. The dash puts control at the driver’s fingertips, and precision driving becomes a true pleasure with Malibu-Medallion instruments and an Italian-made Isotta steering wheel.
NO ROOM FOR COMPROMISE. It sounds cliché, but in the case of the Response FXi, it’s true. This boat does everything well. It is Malibu’s solution for the avid skier’s growing family — and changing needs. This cross-over is built on the 20-foot Cut Diamond Hull and powered by a direct-drive multi-port fuel injected engine. This skiing machine features a 98-inch beam and increased freeboard. These specs translate to more performance and more room for family. The FXi is a world-class slalom star, but can also provide big wakes for board sports. Add the Patented Power Wedge and available 400-pound rear ballast to boost the wake. Cap it off with an Illusion XS tower and the younger set will have their wakeboarding boat without compromising your morning ski run.
DISTINCTIVE LOOK The FXi, our new family-centric Response, has an unmistakably sleek profile easily spotted on the water. The precisely-sculpted Cut Diamond Hull sets it apart from imitators. Coupled with the completely customizable gel coat graphics and the new MH2 frameless windshield, the Response FXi becomes your personal pledge to performance. The handcrafted interior features multiple textures and colors of 38-ounce G&T Marine vinyl, joined by the elegant strength of French stitching. Increased beam and freeboard have enabled Malibu to add more comfort, more luxury and more room to this powerful performer.
