He's a good kid, a little slow, but obviously doing something right in his life to get approved for financing on a brand new MXZ22. Brand new MXZ22. New.

Great write up. I'm going to get the sumo 900s for my boat based on this info. Thanks!

I think your opinion on the Fly High and SL reflects my experience with both of them. If I ever buy anymore bags that need to be filled manually, I am going to stick with SL.

stevev210 01-28-2014 9:12 AM

Didn't know they made a bro stock 600. I thought they only did a 750. Before filling is the bro stock 600 the same as the sumo 600? 40×19×19

Steve I believe this year they are making a 450, 600, and 750 in the brostock edition. I will measure it when I get home on Thursday and let you know

You are correct. BroStock bags are increasing in variety this season.

ryanw209 01-28-2014 2:56 PM

Steve I was just informed all the brostock sacs are the same as the sumo except for the color

Wow! That thing really bulges length wise. The sumo 600 lists at 40x19x19. Thanks for doing all this work for us!

Here is a new bow sac from Straightline that we got to test as well. This thing is pretty sweet and came out right at 740 lbs.

I just snagged one of the new Straight Line Sumo 500 Bow sacs last week. It fits a little bit better in our VLX when compared to the Fly High Integrated Bow Sac. I will try and throw it on the scale at work soon.

Can't believe I never saw this thread. Thanks for the efforts Ryan. I'm in the market right now for some new sacks after nine years with my boat.

Thanks for the thread

I wish some body would send you an 1100 fly high because I'm getting ready to switch out my Straight Line 800 for it. But now I wounder if I will really be gaining 300 pounds.

Unless you are rocking a 24SSV I doubt you will see 300 additional pounds from the larger bag. What are the dimensions of physical space in your locker? Use the weight calculator at the bottom of this page. http://www.wakemakers.com/resources/...d-ballast-bag/

jonblarc7 07-24-2014 11:37 AM

Well I'm am rocking a 24V which is the same boat as the 24SSV with out all the stickers. LOL!!!!!!

My advice would be to get the SL 900's instead. We fit 1000lbs in the SL900 and considering FH comes in under weight 95% of the time I'm guessing we would only get 1000lbs in the FH1100 anyway. The other upside is keeping 1" with the SL bags instead of choking them down to 3/4" in the FH...

Spencer,

Why are only the green Brostock 900's listed on your site? I don't see the regular 900's anymore.

I have the same question. Also, why does the brostock bag only have 3 fill/vent ports when all other Straightline bags have 4? Makes no sense.

They actually have 5 as listed on the wakemakers website: Ports: 1 LINK fill, 2 fill/vent - 2 drain

So 3 on the top of the bag and one on each end.

You guys are too late. Early bird gets the bag. We are sold out of the regular 900's. I have more coming in the middle of August. They are so hot right now.

boardjnky4 07-25-2014 11:57 AM

OK, what about the differences with the brostock bag?

Color is the only difference I believe...

Best thread I've seen in awhile. Thanks!

Had to bump it to the top. Good to see the advice I got from wakemakers the sumo is under rated and fly high is over rated is correct.

rlwagens 09-17-2015 8:12 PM

Can anyone shed some light on the best fit for integrated bow sacs in 03-06 210s after the cooler is removed? Wakemakers says the straight light 500 is designed with the boat in mind, but everyone loves running the fly highs even though they don't fill all the way. Seems the SL is wider and less depth and fly high seems way too thick at 12" to fit in that space.
