    Man, this was fun!
    We put all weight on the port side since all of us ride regular, I can freeride as long as I want to, up and down the wake, carving in and out.
    This is a Pro Air DD -00
    Only port side ballast filled
    Then a fat sack with ~500lbs on the port side as far back as possible without removing the back seat
    2 p in back seat on port side + driver
    Next thing will be to buy a Trick Boardz Surf skate!

      Hey Peter

      The Trickboardz Surf Skate is an incredible board. However, I think they are done making the wooden ones. Better hurry. They will have a glass one next year.

        I'm not sure that giving up the wood is all that bad. Maybe the boards will be even better!?

            when in doubt more weight! We have had over 5000 pounds of fat sacks and people (total) in the 98 super sport and it was a sick wake. Even my 89 supra (I still think cc's are better...) had a nice wake with about 1800 pounds and 11 people, but nowhere near the SuperSport's wake. see attached pics... By far the best wake has come from the most weight... about 2000# evenly distributed (bow, ski locker, next to the engine) and the rest on one side, plus as many people as possible on that side.
            How 'bout a little reverse action...

              Heh, I thought we had a decent wake with 1000# and 2-3 people.
              Now I see that we can get some more fat sacks! PDT_002
