Wakeplate Question

[ffmcdou]

08 LSV, Reference picture. Is this in the all the way down position? (because that is as far as it will go)

[mmandley]

yup thats as fare as it goes. it goes slightly lower then the rear of the boat. And when you put it up it only goes about 2 inches up.

I have a 2000 mobius V with a wakeplate that looks just like this and I don't understand what it is meant to be used for. When I lower it down to 50% I have a hard time seeing any noticeable difference, except that it seems at 100% the boat planes out a bit better... what is the reason to set it to anything less than 100%?

[ffmcdou]

bret, I think it's purpose is to shape the wake. When mine is all the way down, the wake is noticeably steeper with a sharper edge. It's real handy if you're wakesurfing too, cleans the wave up and gets alot of the washout gone.

Ok so all the way down is probably 100% and all the way up is 0%... I'll have to maybe try it at 0% this weekend as I am still a beginner.
