Meet WAKE 10's Wake Shapers: The Best Gifts for Boaters

As the holiday season approaches, finding the perfect gifts for boaters can seem daunting. However, at WAKE 10, we want to put the stress and anxiety of figuring out gifts for friends and family at ease.

If you have a fellow boat owner in your life, our line of wake shapers is here to save the day. Not only are WAKE 10's wake shapers affordable, they also elevate the wake shaping experience in a new and exciting way. 

So, if you need more unique gift ideas and want to shake up the holiday season, WAKE 10 can help.

A gift like a wake shaper is an excellent option because it is affordable, durable, and transforms the wakesurfing experience from day one. If the boaters in your life are also avid wakesurfers, then WAKE 10's high-quality, affordable wake shapers are the ideal gift for them.

What Is a Wake Shaper?

The wake shaper is a lightweight attachment that easily installs to most inboard boats. Once ready to go, the wake shaper smooths and lengthens the wake coming off the boat. 

Why do Boaters Need a Wake Shaper?

Without a wake shaper, the wake coming off the boat is small and choppy. As a result, wakesurfers have a much harder time catching a wave. The goal of the wake shaper is to smooth and lengthen the wake to make it easier for surfers to hang loose. 

How Does it Work?

Starting with how wake shapers work, boaters need to install the wake shaper to the side of the boat. WAKE 10's line of wake shapers attaches to the side of the boat via industrial marine-grade suction cups. This makes setup and installation extremely user-friendly.
 

Once the wake shaper is installed, boaters need to start moving across the water. As the boat picks up speed, the wake shaper changes the wake by smoothing and lengthening the wake. 

The wake shaper produces a surfable wave by creating turbulence and diverting water from the side of the boat towards the water. In addition, WAKE 10's wake shapers are shaped like a wedge to create more draft in the water and make the wake even smoother for surfers. 
A device like this is an excellent gift for boaters as it can benefit the experienced wakesurfer and someone looking just to get started. 

Let's Look at WAKE 10's Line of Wake Shapers

WAKE 10 has two different wake shapers, both producing the same great results. The important difference between these two is that one is compatible with more boats and has a different design.  

The WAKE 10 Wakesurf Creator

The WAKE 10 Wakesurf Creator is the first of WAKE 10's wake shapers. It is compatible with most inboard boats and has easy installation. First, let's take a more in-depth look at the WAKE 10's standard wake shaper. 

The Design

The WAKE 10 Wakesurf Creator is eight inches wide, seven and three-quarters inches high, and twelve and a half inches long. The device's wedge, which creates the drag, is seven and three-quarters inches high. This is how far it will stick out off the boat. 

The wake shaper's structure is made of a single-piece solid body injection, which means it is heavy duty and will last. 

Installation

The wake shaper is installed using marine-grade industrial strength suction cup technology. Once the wake shaper is in place, use the easy flip levers to lock it into position.

The wake shaper can be installed either before the boat launches or once the boat is out on the water. So, the installation process is straightforward and will not be a delay for your boater friends. 

​As a bonus, the Wakesurf Creator includes a floating lanyard. If the wake shapers detach while in use, the floating lanyard ensures you do not lose it. 

The Result

The Wakesurf Creator gives you a smooth wake that is longer, higher, and has more curl. It is compatible with most inboard boats, so it is an excellent gift for boaters this holiday season. Of your many boater friends, the WAKE 10 Wakesurf Creator is most likely compatible with their inboard boat. 

WAKE 10's Wakesurf Creator is an excellent gift for boaters this holiday season because of: 
  • The design
  • The installation process
  • The result

The WAKE 10 Wakesurf Creator X4 Pro

The Wakesurf Creator X4 Pro is the second version of WAKE 10's line of wake shapers. The design differs from the standard wake shaper. However, it still produces the same fantastic result. Below we are going to take a look at the X4 Pro. 

The Design

Measuring in at eight inches wide, nineteen inches long, and nine inches high, the X4 Pro is larger than the standard. It is made up of a two-piece injection-molded solid body, which means it is highly durable. However, this design is a slim base for boats with narrow hull lines or stepped hulls. 

This design is compatible with almost all inboard boats, including the following: 
  • MasterCraft X Series
  • MasterCraft MariStar
  • Sanger V Series
The X4 Pro features an eight-by-eight wake-shaping area, giving your boater friends a great wake. 

Installation

Similar to the standard wake shaper, the X4 Pro installs via marine-grade suction cup technology. The X4 Pro's suction cups feature three inches in diameter suction cups, so it is hard to fall off.  

Once in place, flip the levers and lock the wake shaper into place. The levers feature marine-grade stainless steel hardware, making the wake shaper exceptionally secure. The X4 Pro also includes two floating lanyards. So, if it detaches from the boat, the wake shaper will not be lost on the water.

The Result

Once it is attached and ready to go, the wake shaper gives you a smooth wake that is longer, higher, and has more curl. This makes it easier for wakesurfers, regardless of experience levels, to have an elite time out on the water. 

​Either of our wake shapers are an exceptional gift for boat owners. Once the wake shapers are ready to go, we are positive that boaters will have a fun day on the lake!
