THE

MALIBU TXI

EXPLORE THE MALIBU TXI

The icon of tournament waterskiing is still on top — and pulling further ahead. The Malibu Response TXi remains the boat skiers trust for their best passes. Built on the exclusive T-Cut Diamond Hull™, it delivers the soft wakes, crisp handling, and dead-straight tracking that have pushed personal bests and fueled 13+ world records.

For 2026, the TXi gets a major upgrade at the helm. A redesigned dash and all-new Garmin touchscreen gives drivers faster, clearer control of every function, while the new windshield improves visibility for a more confident pull. On the water, the TXi's consistency is unmatched. Advanced Rudder Control, Zero Off GPS, and Malibu's precision tracking deliver the reliable pull skiers demand — whether it's a training set or a record run. Chosen as the official towboat of the IWWF, the Response TXi continues its legacy at the top of the sport. The TXi is built to pull champions.
