Thoughts on the wake - Older X-Star

Anyone have experience with the wake for surfing an older X-Star, like a 2000 or 2001?

I have a 2001 X-Star and surf quite a bit. You can get good wave on either side.

I run factory center and surf side rear tanks, and a 600lb sac as full as I can get it in surf side locker, and about 400lbs of lead in the nose. I can run this setup with a driver and spotter only, and it gets even better with more people! If we have enough people, I don't have to fill the 600 sac.

I am always interested in hearing other set ups of this boat though. I'm always willing to try something new.

We get a decent port wake with a 750 in the rear locker, a 390 under the port seat, center ballast full, and ~150lbs in the nose. We don't have the same luck on the starboard side, but we're all regular and don't bother with it anymore..
