Can you buy those air valves from wakemakers or someplace? Just anything to let some air out of the bags while being able to put water in the bag.

Yes, wake makers has them or you can drill out your current plug. Check out the wake makers site to see what I mean.

No, I have those. Don't they make some that are more high tech that I see on the 750s sacs. Everytime I unscrew that one to let air out a bunch of water comes out.

Hmmmm . . . I haven't seen anything different but they certainly could exist. Guess all I can suggest from here is to call wakemakers.

I remember people talking about these one time and most people not looking them for the price. After looking at them again I don't think it's what you want but maybe it's what you remember people talking about.

are you manually filling with a fly high t1200 or is it plumbed to your factory ballast controls?

the are plugs work fine and will let are out with minimal water spewage, otherswise add a wye and vent the bags

what boat and model do you have. this may help
