          Bill Brasky rides behind a barge with 257 tons of lead on it.

            That is not a wake, that is a moving inverted half pipe.

              Im not entirely sure I believe that because in the King Of Wake vid the guy said it was only like 1300 extra pounds and a wake any bigger than that would just be terrifying. Even if you are JD Webb. Plus it would be so vertical I dont know if you could even get all the way up with without breaking through at some point. Just MHO.
