I just picked up a 2105 Mondo Surf Edition. At 10 mph, rear ballast full, front at 75%, and wakeplate up, the kids can surf just fine but there isn’t near enough push for me at 220 lbs. We’ve tried all kinds of speed and ballast tweaks but nothing works. Do I need to upgrade to larger rear bags or would changing the Autoflow settings improve the push?
Thanks in advance if anyone can help.

Is your board rated for 220#? That could be the issue. I'm around there :), and I barely surf with my wife/kids board (P5 Oogle). Basically need to pump the entire time and it gets exhausting. I now use a P5 Trident and it's amazing.

I’m not sure, it’s a Ronix Koal Technora Powertail, 4’5.” It’s a pretty thick board, but Ronix does not list a weight rating for it on their site. The shop I bought it from said it would work for someone my size, and I get a ton of push with it on our friend’s 23 ft Air Nautique. I’ll look into your suggestion on a new board.
Thanks!

Only 10mph? How can the wave even be any good. It must be mush as that speed. Try going up to 10.8-11mph. It will clean up and make the wave firmer.

So far we’ve found less push at 11 and a slightly longer, flatter wake. Maybe with less weight up front 11 will be taller.
