I have a DD and I find I get my optimum wake with my front ski locker ballast empty, my rear ballast tank full ( mine is under my rear seat, I have a 250 lbs bag between the back seat and motor, a 540 lbs sac on the surf side with an additional 540 sac on top of the surf side sack running onto the back seat. With my DD I find it is all about loading the surf side and when i used to try filling the front centre ballast it was counter productive, it seems like with the engine in the centre of the boat once you put additional weight in the front centre you were essentially countering your side ballast. With this set up I get a nice size pocket and no need to drive in an arc.
