Ok I had a quick question, riding behind a Tige' 2003 22I. The wake is pretty good stock, but I should have delivered today 3 fat sacs "1200 lbs" to enhance it. Right now I am riding at 65 feet at 24 to 25 mph. I have progresed pretty good this summer and now when I get a pretty good cut out 15 to 20 feet I clear the wake and land in the flats everytime. At this time I really can't let anymore line out because the wake starts to crumble beyond the 65 foot length.

My question is with the added weight will it bring the sweet spot further away from the boat, giving me more room to pop hard and hit the downslope on the other wake? That way if I come in at 80 to 90% of capacity I will hit the downslope, and when I hit it at 95 to 100% it will take me to the flats. Right now 60 to 70% will get me to the flats. I would like to ride at 70 to 75 feet, and I am anticipating the extra weight will help. I hope so. What do you think?

Yes. More weight 'usually' means you can lenghten the rope. The wake 'should' be nice further back with the additional weight. You will probably have to increase speed slightly too.
