Needs to be rear heavy to clean it up going that slow. Rope length is key also. 55-60 ft is about as far back as you can go with a clean wake at that speed.
    I kept trying to add bow weight and none in the rear so that sounds like my issue...i will try partially filling my bags next time we are out. Thanks!

        Justin you should be proud. Kane is a great rider and a absolutely incredible kid! We have enjoyed watching his progression in the sport.

                    Wow this is awesome. Wish I started riding at that age. Question is did you teach him everything he knows or is he starting to teach you now!?

                      Haha I taught him everything he knows but he past me this year....and I am perfectly ok with that. I'd rather pull him and watch him progress than ride myself these days.

                          That's amazing! He must be fearless learning how to do inverts at such a young age. Wish I didn't worry about getting hurt, but I'm too old to be trying inverts now.

                          I showed my kids (10 years old) and they didn't believe it was real. They thought it was a fake video. Lol

                              Thanks so much! He rides the Hyperlite Murray Jr 120. Here are a couple more of his videos for some more inspiration.
