Anyone have any recent installs, what did you pay? I’ve searched around and can’t seem to find anything relatively recent. Looking to make my surf wave better and I think this and swapping my hard tanks out for 1100s is my next step.

One of the best NSS install threads with lots of great info and pricing. Is it recent… No but still relevant and worth a read. I did this install on my last 09 210 and work flawlessly for 4 years before I sold the 09.
Good luck, it was way worth it in my opinion2009 Super Air Nautique 210 TE
2006 Super Air Nautique 210 TE
1989 Sport Nautique

Perhaps not what youre looking for but here goes. I have 2006 SANTE 220 TE. I bought it with stock rear tanks and they were piggybacked with 400's on top of them. I used to put a 600LB sac on the seats up front and the wave was quite nice for the year boat. I have thought long and hard about GSA, NSS Tabs, Evolution tabs.. Ive ever gone so far as to design tabs in AutoCad to get waterjet on SS sheets. Its something Ive been grappling with for years even before I bought my Nautique (I used to have a MasterCraft). My problem was Ive seen many videos of boats outfitted with all of the tabs and what Ive seen in terms of the wave is pretty underwhelming. Ive even read many write ups about installs on wakegarage that look great and work great, but the resulting opinion is the wave it produced wasn't worth it.
Story-time: Every once in a while, I search for sale boats just to see how I sit financially with mine in terms of the market. I ran across a 5 year old ad of a boat just like mine that had the Go Surf Assist installed on it and in the ad, it said "Also have NSS tabs sitting in a box". Even though the ad was 5 years old, I called the number anyways since I assumed the guy liked to talk boats. He did and he said the GSA tabs didn't make a huge difference and he had bought them hoping it would turn his boat into a surf machine. He said he felt it wasn't even close to worth the money and the time. But, the guy he sold it to was still in touch with him and he then gave me his number. I called the new owner and he still had the boat. He got the boat because it had the GSA tabs on it, but when he used them, he said the wave was NOT what he expected. He took them off and installed the NSS tabs the seller had in the box when he bought it hoping they were the key to unlocking a huge wave. Same thing. Not impressed. He still has the boat and surfs on it all the time, but he doesn't use either of the tabs. He uses a wake 10 shaper and pulled the hard tanks in the rear, replaced them with 1100's and piggybacked a nose sac off the belly tank. After talking with both of these guys, I decided not to go that route and copy them. This is my wave now and I very happy with it.

Looks like a good wave. I’m still trying to decide. I snagged an Edge shaper a few weeks ago. I’ve also got the piggy backed rear tanks and a ballast in the nose. The wave is plenty surfable with 2 in the boat, would likely only get better with more weight. Are you filling everything full or are you listing to the surf side hard?

That wave, surprisingly enough, is listed to the opposite side. I was having a problem emptying my starboard ballast and didn't know it. So that photo was taken with a port side surfer, the starboard 100% full and the port about 2/3" full. The attached photo was taken while about 3/4 both full in rear and belly and nose 100% with a delta wedge.
