Who has been on the water??

[JoHNI_T]

Been on the water at least 10 times this year. chestermere ice comes off early and the lake warms up quick. mostly surfin but some boardin and skatin too.Its nice to have buddies with way nicer boats than mine lol. nothin quite like surfin in crisp water then hot tubbin with a bud light lime. ahhh life is sweet

Hey rounder, I live in the chest too, I have only been out twice but might go tonite for a pull, come say hey if ya see us white/yellow Mastercraft X2 or white/red Moomba outback...

what are you riding behind always looking for peeps to ride with seems like not too many people like the water around here...

search for "winter fun" on youtube (you might need to search "xerophobic" first)

umm mine is the orange 4'6" I think,, I am riding behind a direct drive with lots of weight so I am very tight to the swim deck usually about two maybe 3 ft,,, I can start off the platform and come back in to the boat without getting wet lol.. but behind my buddies mailbu and mastercraft you can ride further back anywhere from the 1 foot up to about 5 maybe even 6, but the sweet spot is 4ftish,,,

just keep play n with the wake mine is a bit soft (smaller boat) so the sweet spot is small but I can recover from about 8 ft out with a little hand paddle,, now we are trying 360s and little pops up the wake,, its prettyy fun and not so painful like wake boarding.

great pics man,,

 

[JoHNI_T]

hey P slut,,, what speed u running?

we ride at 9.8mph and load the rear corner with weight, wake plate 3/4 way down,, my wake actualy has a curl we got it dialed now,, 1 x 500 rear bag, 2 x 400lb side bags and all the people to the rding side...

I will try and get pic of just the wake for ya..

 

[POWDERSLUT]

10.5 to 11,only one speedo workin right now.You put your wake plate down,I thought up is what makes a big wake and down to push bow down and flattin the wake?That pic is only 150 pounds in back corner and driver with 5 year old in back corner snappin pics.My boat is a Supra Mariah 91,D-drive,454 21.6 ft

yes sorry you are right,, plate 3/4 up,,,

I bought removeable fat saks, the 2, 400lbs bags with pump they work great,,, I also have 4 of thoose blue water jugs they must weigh like 60lbs or more and they are easy to move around the boat.


yup just add some weight and that wake will grow and firm up for ya,, and try 1mph slower,,, have fun man getting that wake dialed is half the battle

oh ya take some more pics:d

 

[POWDERSLUT]

OK,a few pics

got the 3,but forgot the rope

here's to flat landings on a 60' rope

concussion?

Powder slut, if you want to ride further back from the boat add weight to the bow, rule of thumb is more weight added to the rear corner the steeper but shorter the wave, more weight in the front is a longer wave but not as tall, you will feel more push with a steeper wave but as JonniT said finding the sweet spot with your combination is crutcial. We surf with alot of weight!!!!! I'll see if the wife has any pics from our recent vacation to give guy's an idea of our tsunami.
