First off, I am definitely no expert on Double-ups

I was out boarding this morning teaching a friend how to drive doubles for me better, especially since it was a cheap 18 ft boston whaler with a tiny wake that i was desperately wanting to beef up, so double up it was.

anyway, we started thinking that if you slow the boat down to about 15mph or even less where you PLAN to come back around and hit that the end result would be bigger.... 'cause, you know the wake is bigger when you go slow like that. of course the boat speeds back up as it circles around to cross and make the double-up.

we tried it about 3 times and it "seemed" to work better... but maybe that was more because i hit them better or that my friend was getting better and better at driving the D-ups (which he was).

So has anyone tried this? maybe this is more common then i think? or maybe it actually makes for bad double-ups really?
