Just baught my Outback V with wakeplate and 3 bag balast; Primary use will be wake surfing and open water agressive skiing. Anyone run the Outback V in the slalom course 15 or 28 off at 34MPH?

How was the wake at 34 and 36 compared to a center engine? I live in Montreal Canada, this sport is picking -up big time here; do you have a canadian chapter?

We have the same hull in our '05 Mobius LSV. My wife has pulled me through the slalom course several times at 32 and 34 mph... 15 off and long line only. Wake is really pretty good for crossing with the wake plate nearly all the way down, it seems you might run into a pretty good size hump at 22 off, I'll have to report back once I get there. I have also pulled others through the course with our boat and it tracks really well with 3 tracking fins, I think the new Outback V only has 2 tracking fins? The Outback V is a very capable dual purpose boat when you get up past 30mph with a slalom skier in tow.
