Anyone plumbed additional sacs into their factory ballast on a Nautique GS20 or GS22?

I am too very surprised at the lack of video from people with these boats regarding surf wave. There's got to be someone on here with with one that has added weight.2009 Super Air Nautique 210 TE

I tried to piggyback sacs in my GS20. It's easy to do the bow sac, but the access to the rear tank overflow through hull fittings was so hard to get to that I gave up.
I still have the sacs in my boat and I have a Sumo Max pump but I've only filled them once because we rarely ever surf. It did make the wave taller and it had more push, but it seemed pretty short to me and very close to the platform. Sorry I don't have any pics.2007 Malibu Wakesetter 23 LSV, 1995 Cobalt 200Comment

I haven't PLUMBED additional ballast but have added weight to optimize a GS20. For stock ballast I run 100/100/50% for Port/Starboard/Belly, NCRS5/NSS0.
I'm a goofy so when I want a better wake I add a 750 to Starboard and then increase the Belly to 80% to 100% dependent on how many are in the boat. Increased push and length experienced with these new settings.
Fuel consumption with the extra 750 and Belly weight is a problem. I'm going to investigate a new prop like the ACME 1235 but was hoping there might be some other guinea pigs to post their prop setups before I spend $600.
