Wake boarding behind gs 22

[Ringer35]

Just wondering what everyone is doing for set up in there boats for wake boarding for a 16 year old strong intermediate wake boarder
Speed ballasts and boat settings would be great

Never having ridden behind the boat I'll bet the following would be ideal because it's just a darn good wakeboard setup behind any boat.
60-65 ft rope
21.5 mph
Ballast Full
NCRS @ 5

I played around with my neighbors GS22 last year, ended up putting 750's on top of stock and 300 in lead in the nose. Ended up being a booming wake, I'm sure it can be dialed in..

I'd avoid extra ballast unless he's taking some big spins or inverts into the flats. Strong Intermediate sounds like he's still working on heelside & toeside wake to wake with grabs/180's both ways. Bigger wakes will increase severity of crashes and perhaps lead to some bad habits or not learning great pop technique. Slower speeds with a reasonable wake will lead to faster progression.

How many years has the Gs22 been out and we still dont have a decent pic or video of the wake???

23.5 mph, full ballast w/pro option, 300lbs lead in bow, 400lbs lead in rear compartments ... ncrs at 5, rope at 70 ... awesome wake all day

That is FAST for an intermediate rider. Even pro's have slowed their speed down to the 22-23 range with modern wake boats. Take the tricks up, not out. It will save your knees.

Hello ringer35, I do tantrums 360s and 180s behind the gs22 and ride 70ft rope at 22.5 mph full ballast ncrs5

How about a good setup for beginners? Kids 10 and 13. I pulled them for the first time yesterday at 17-18 mph, but wasn't sure how to properly setup the wake, or clean up the lip etc.
