We run the old school fat sac's down the walkway. I'd guess it holds around 400lbs. Keep in mind, though, that the X-stars really like to be a$$ heavy. Otherwise the wake is all transition and no-kick. I've always been a 50-50 nose to rear weighting guy, but the X-star I'd say is closer to 70% rear and 30% front. FWIW, you can definitely tow with lead. A few hundred pounds wont hurt anything. We've towed with a couple thousand before without any problems. The biggest thing is balancing the lead front to rear so you don't end up with a really heavy or light tongue weight. You can always move the weight over the axles when you tow, then re-distribute when you get where you're going. I guess it more depends on what tow vehicle and how many hills you climb.
