The open bow offers seating with an unobstructed view forward, and a total of seven people are permitted on board. A short wing windscreen keeps the driver's view clear. Fold-down ski racks made of milled aluminium store the skis safely, and the cockpit is laid out for functional tournament use.
The foundation is the T-Cut Diamond hull, which according to Malibu defines the boat's performance. Advanced Rudder Control and Zero Off GPS speed control ensure a constant speed and a straight course during runs. Engine power ranges from 360 to 430 hp, from an inboard engine.
The driver works with the TXi Command Center with a Garmin touchscreen, optionally supplemented with a wireless phone holder. Unlike the wakeboats from Malibu, the TXi has no factory ballast, which suits the low wake that water skiers look for.
The hull length is 6.25 m and the beam 2.41 m, with a draught of 0.56 m. The dry weight is around 1,406 kg and the fuel tank holds approximately 151 litres. The payload is 448 kg and a maximum of seven people are permitted on board.
