    how much weight do you run to get a massive size wake, aka super air style wake. do you run stock ballast, take the tanks out and use larger bags? show some pictures of your wake if you have them. If you have a surf wake picture, post it, weight used etc.

    thanks,
    Mike

    Hi Mike,

    I dont have a lot of wake pics, but here's what I have. First picture is the wake on Starboard with stock ballast, center and starboard full. Thats about knee high wake, about 7.5 mph - i think. The pic looks a bit washy, so I think we were going too slow. Im goofy footed. I have only played with stock ballast and nothing else, so I cant tell you much. Although I heard, Shaun Murray uses lead to further enhance the wake.

    Second Pic - empty ballast.

    Sorry, these are the only pics I have.

      Second Pic.... empty ballast. As you can see, you really need to weight it down to get a nice ramp.
