We've been trying all different combinations of weighting and I've referenced the following thread -
http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/87668/167460.html

I've upgraded the sacs to the pro-x 750's in the rear and the 1200 up front. Right now the best setup we've gotten is fill the non-drivers side to max(500), 1 pro-x v-drive sac on the seat (400), 1 v-drive sac right next to it on the floor(another 400), and about 1/3 full in the front(400). All passengers (usually 3 being about 450) are on the surf side and the rub rail is for sure below the waterline.

If I put more weight upfront it seems counterproductive although sometimes I get cavitation from the prop if there isn't enough. Filling the non-surf side doesn't seem to make the wake better either.

There were lots of suggestions in the other thread but I'm just looking to see what other ssv riders are doing. The surf wake is definitely rideable but I wanted to get some more input to tweak it that last little bit. Usual speed is 10-11 on the pp.

Ryan, I met Bryon Greene the web designer-owner for Wakeboard Indiana this summer. He has a 22 foot Supra and claims all he needs for a good goofy wake is to fill the starboard locker. I think he has the small ballast system. You might try posting on his web page.

Good Luck!

Thanks Ed - I'll check that site out and see if I can hook up with him.

It's not like the surf wake is bad - it's just not as good as my friends centurion and I know that I have enough sacs to get there!
