Pre- 07 SAN Surf Guide: Building a Wave

jeff. not to diss your wake but it needs improving. and it can be done. i will see if i can come up with a port/stbd pics. you want your boat listed (leaning) enough that you wake rolls to the middle. yours has way to much wash.

how much total weight do you have in your port locker? you also may need more up front. where is your rub rail, while riding, in relation to the water?

im not sure why yours isnt rolling over. if i calculated your weight correctly, ours are with in 50 lbs.

Hey John, no offense taken... I'll be the first to admit I've got work to do... unfortunately, our experimentation yesterday ended shortly after that video as my engine started acting up. (See this thread http://www.planetnautique.com/vb3/sh...20365-No-power...)

Port locker had integrated (250?) + the 300 (I think it's actually 280lb) fat sack.

I didn't look at the rub rail (but I will next time after reading this thread)... I do know the port vent was dangerously close to getting water in on several occasions when turning/waves going by.

Here is my port wake with the above weight

jeff. you need more weight in the locker. pull thoughs hard tanks and put in some 750s. very easy to do adn mega worth it. also you may have to relocate your vent.

notice how intrlz wake rolls to the middle. he looks to have his wake nicely dialed in. also notice our (his and mine) weight configurations are very similar.

intrlz... are you riding a pier. that is a long board.

Haha John yes it is. It's an IS red woody. Its a great all around board for newbies and larger riders. I've got a Walker Project that is awesome but tough for beginers to ride
