Moomba Flow Surf Available for 2006 and Newer LSVs

That's interesting. I have tried running mine way past the 3 position and it didn't work so well for me.

I would think pulling it all the way down like that is just adding more drag to make the wave taller, Would be interesting for you to get some videos.

1 With the flow in each position 1,2,3
2 With the Flow all the way down like that.

Then you can watch them and really compare the differences.

Also to remove the handle you should have 2 screws flush mounted on the back side, Then I would take a bolt and nuts and just put it in the plate and allow adjustment. That should clear your swim deck.

In the long run though I think you will need to get the Surf style swim deck because in a recent video we took I can see how the surf deck is actually helping create the wave, or at least its not hindering it since we run so much weight.

Can you guys with the flow post up some detailed photos of this thing - and from several angles?

Mike,

I think some are actually spinning it all the way around on the surf side and setting off side as you currently are to replicate the SWELL.

Wow. I didn't even think about copying the SWELL. That might just work. I can't wait to install mine.

So deploy the Surf side all the way down?
Deploy your non surf side as normal?

< Mind Blown >

That's the thought.

I tried it, but didn't really get it to spin down as far as I thought it should go and it seemed to make the wave washy. I only tried it one time and didn't mess around with it too much. In theory, it sounds like it will work.

This is really interesting... im gonna try this today!!

If it works, get a regular deploy pic and an all the way down pic so we can see the wave, I tried it a while ago but like Drew I just got wash.

Ok to answer the many questions. The FLOW for the LSV is different than the Mojo. The LSV's is only deployed down, not to the side. Different hull, different spot to create the wave.

There are only three positions to lock it in, and the pic is with it in the first position.

Here are the pics of the wave.

This is with 750's in the back filled only 3/4. Ski locker 400 filled 3/4, and 400 in the walkway filled, wake plate up.
Pocket was larger than when running the 750 filled surf side, 400 under the seats surf side, Ski locker 400 filled 3/4, and 400 in the walkway filled, wake plate 3/4 up. Wave seemed just as big.

Big bonus to the FLOW. The boat was not listing. When coming around to pick up the surfer, boat was controllable, just like when setup for wake boarding.

With the original swim platform installed and pushed out to make room for the flow, it seems to be messing up the wave, creating all sorts of roster tails. Waiting on the new platform, so hopefully this will clean up the wave even further.

So far very happy with the investment. Moomba needs to include some sort of reminder flag to put on the steering wheel that the FLOW is deployed. Forgot to put it up when done surfing. Luckly we were just cruising around slowly and never got over 10, but it was putting out a good wave.

Will try to post comparison images tomorrow.

Please post Goofy waves also. Thanks.

I forgot to put the flow back up one time. No need for any kind of indicator light as the 10' water streaming straight up caught everyone's attention very quickly.

I will let you know. I have 2 1100's ordered. I will also post a photo and/or video once they are installed

Here is a pic of ballast on surf side(left), and balanced boat with the FLOW(right).

Is this pic taken from the river that feeds Lake Macatawa?

No, these are from the St. Joseph River.

Hi all. I had flow installed on my 2012 LSV. Here are my findings after 2 weeks of surfing and experimenting. All of this is for goofy side surfing but expect it to be no different for regular side.

I have found the best position for the plate is rotated down so it hits bottom pin but not locked in place into one of the three position holes. I've tried this with various ballast configs and always this is the best position.
Even with no ballast at all this gets an ok surf wave. My son rides it no prob. But it gets better.
Best combo is plate in that position and front ballast 80-100% full. I put my passenger in the bow - right side. With just driver and Passenger in bow - need no more than no more than 300-500 lbs on right side and 150-200 on left side. This combo gives us a big clean rolling wave with the wake plate in the bow up position. Moving the wakeplate to the bow down position lengthens out the pocket nicely.
I found that too much ballast makes the wave less clean.

The above combo works outstanding. Love it.
