02 x star wake

I've got a 2002 x star, and i was wondering if anybody would know how to make the wake a little more rampy, the vert wake is kinda inconsistent for less experienced riders, and i think if the wake was a little more rampy, it would be a litte easier to learn behind.
thanks

Make the boat wider. Just kidding.

The vert of the wake is largely a product of the depth of the boat in the water. While the volume of the wake is largely a product of the displacement of the boat in the water.

If you are heavily loaded in the back, you can reduce the vert by making the boat more balanced (more weight up front or less weight in the back). The boat will also drive better and get better fuel economy.
