I love my wake...

Just snapped these pics last night and when looking at them realized just how much I LOVE my wake. This thing throws a massive wake with killer pop.

Rider is 6'1" riding 75 feet at 25mph. Boat is 24SSV with stock front 1150 full, two 750's in the rear full, and 3 people in the boat. It was getting dark so the pics are not fantastic, but not terrible.

You would love your wake a lot more if your driver could hold speed better....too much wash

No problems holding speed... perfect pass does a "perfect" job of that. Wake plate was only 25% down so it can curl just a little, but you don't notice it while riding. The other side washes out when you cut in, happens every time but never seems to affect the landings.

I don't go to party cove but I am also sure mine is not the only one in DFW. Thanks for the compliment though.

Haha... I had similar thoughts today, all day! Last night we loaded 4 600lb sacs in our newly purchased X-star(2001), for the 1st time. I couldn't believe how nice the wake was... Sorry, no pics.

Looks like some curl toeside...

Looks pretty nice, my buddy has a 24 and I'm yet to get behind it.

Blake - we just started running our X1 with about 2000 and the wake is ridiculous. Perfect at about 24 and 75 with so much straight up pop. pics to come

Yeah, the pics make it look like it curls a little at the top, but you really don't notice it or see it when you are charging it.

Got to ride this wake this morning with the same stock ballast setup and it is legit! A bit finicky to get if not to curl over, but once its dialed it is huge with a nice kick at the top. I'd say about as big as our X1 with about 2000 lbs.

Roddyrod,
Great minds think alike... We've been riding at 24mph, 75', too! Headed out this morning for another set... And I still can't believe how sweet it is. I've been booting really clean raley's... I'll try to get some pics tomorrow. BTW, your pics looks identical to our wake.

Yeah, I was really surprised how much the 24 wake reminded me of our X1, even though the boats are drastically different in size.
