After Market Wake Shapers

[Bad Cad]

I have an 02 SAN and made a GSA type system with very disappointing results. It looks good but has no push. Gone back to the home made suckgate with a slight list. I'm going to try a Malibu type system next because I hate the low speed steering with the suckgate. This is an honest post cause it cost a grand in actuators and switches here in Canada just to go back to a $50 suction cup an cutting boards.

You just saved me a lotof money and time. Thank you.

We have a lot of ballast, I will make a "learn from my mistakes" thread this weekend and I will detail everything there.

Thanks for this. I was loosely planning to make a GSA-like system, too. Please put a link here when you post the "post mortem".

I have mission delta, too. I'm guessing just about any of those suck gates will work. Sounds like it'll save me a lot of time, money and work. Thanks!

BTW - here's a link to some videos of my wave.

Note, I found the Mission Delta wave tuning youtube video after I captured these videos. I moved the MD device up about 2" to 3" and it cleaned up the top of the wave nicely. It isn't huge, but is very ride-able and fun.

Note 2, the suck gate does blow low speed maneuverability, but I found just turning with it (after the rider is down) vs. against it makes things a whole lot easier.

Thanks for "taking one for the team." I was literally about to order a GSA for my 2005 when I realized no one else had any experience or success stories with them. You should have a go fund me account to recoup some costs.

LOL fantastic idea, been away from home or busy with family visiting. I'll get more pics and post up on a rainy day.
