I am seriously looking at a 2007 Super Air 220 and I would to know some feedback on the surf wake. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I wakeboard/surf 50/50, but a real nice surf wake.
|
Honestly, after everything is figured out with ballast you are going to be riding one of the best shaped wakes around! Serious......
|
Don't know much about the newer Nautique hulls, but is the 07 the same as the 08?
|
I've ridden it with 12 people in the boat and it was a really good wake. With proper weighting in the right places I'm sure we could have gotten it even better, but it was pouring down rain.
|
I am told that Nautiques are better set up on the goofy side. Is that right? JJ, how much ballast are you talking about?
|
They are better on the goofy side because they have opposite prop rotation. At least that's what I've been told. The shred stixx guys ride a nautique and it looks like a great wave.
|
The new Nautiques, '07 and newer, do not have opposite prop rotation. I have an '07 236 that has as good a surf wave as I have ever ridden on any boat on the regular side. I have custom ballast hard piped in to control the weight all the way down the port side and in the bow. The small wake gate makes a surprising big difference and you need to experiment with it for the right wake shape.

Pictures Scott!

OK, I thought they were the same. We rode 08 Nautiques at the Barrel boss contest last year and the wake was great! I'm not at home, but when I get back, I'll post some pics up and try and find the weight setup, I had it written down somewhere. The goofy wake looked nice, and both sides got good reviews from everyone.

Here is a lil vid from this spring <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ik_qtEVKyxY" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ik_qtEVKyxY</a>. Port, 12 people in the boat, starboard, starboard ballast full and 4 people in the boat. <BR> <BR>edit: It is an '07 just like you're looking at. <BR> <BR>(Message edited by wakesurf_ohio on July 27, 2009)

i have an 07 220 san and both sides are amazing. Just depends what your looking for. The goofy side is a lil shorter but much steeper and the regular side is not as steep but much longer. i will post some pics up of the wake. I absolutely love it and would trade for anything else.
