I typically just move people around to balance weight when I am driving but its inevitable that people get up and move between sessions causing the boat to list enough to wash out the wake on one side. Not sure how other models are, but compared to my 05 x-star the wake behind my helix is really sensitive to shifting weight side to side. I have played with autowake a few times for surfing but Ive got manual settings dialed in. Has anyone had good results using it with wakeboarding? What would be a good starting point for pitch, roll, and amplitude settings? It seems like it would be best to have 0 degree roll but wasn't sure. If it makes a difference I have 1000 bags in the rear, center hard tank plus 400 lb of bow ballast, and 500 lb of lead spread around equally.

I’ve been told that 0 degree roll is best if you calibrate it like this:

You and one other adult in boat
Ballast half full or so
Around 20mph
Wakeplate around 10 to get big rooster tail
Move passenger around to get wake perfect

Then go to Autowake settings and recalibrate roll. Then set roll to 0 in your roll settings.

I’ll have to check what my pitch is set to...no idea but I’ve left that factory
