Does anyone know the weight setup that was run in the 2012 King of Wake competition with the G23? The wake is *unbelievable* - check out the video here:

Specifically take a peek at the sections where the wakeboarding competition is being done where they show the close up shots of the wake on the side they are launching from - it's absolutely amazing. I was wondering if anyone knew *exactly* what weight setup they had in the boat because the wake is so amazing.

At Wake games last April I asked the Nautique rep and he indicated that they ran the G23 with full stock for the boys and amateur men, and had about 1400lbs extra ballast on top of stock for the pros.

^^Consistent with what I heard as well. Murray told a neighbor/riding buddy of mine that the G23 Teaser films/photo shoots were done with 1400lbs extra over stock ballast.

If thats just 1400 extra pounds then that wake is even better than what i thought it was!!!!!!!

That is amazing.. I wouldn't suppose anyone knows the distribution did they? I know the whole 60/40 rule, maybe I should watch again and look for any sacs up in the bow. If they kept it all hidden that would be awesome. If they only had to add to the back, that makes the additional ballast install even easier. Thanks so much for the info, I'm so pumped about this boat. How in the world am I going to be able to wait 4 years to find a used one that's actually in my price range... 1460 days to go.

Just come to Ride Lab and ride behind it.

On another note i saw a picture with JD Webbs bow filled with sacs.

That wake is better than what ANYBODY thought it was.

I know the pros run with about approx 600-750 in the rear lockers, 200 under midship seats, about 750 up in the bow.
