Hi Emilware. Watched your wakeboarding video and see lots of great things and some pretty good technique. I can’t tell from the video so I have to guess a bit but here is what I see. It looks like you could slow the boat down a bit. Slow to 19-20mph if you are going faster than that. If you are already going that speed shorten your rope to about 50’. There are videos on how to shorten it without tying a knot. The wake could be a bit beefier. You don’t need it to be enormous but just a bit more volume with a decent ramp will work wonders. I run 800lbs of lead and 50% in all the ballast and it works really well in my 2020 Mojo. You can tweak the rampiness to your taste with the Center plate. Once you are consistently jumping wake to wake on both your heel and you sides you can start to lengthen the rope. Be sure to always keep the handle near your hip to keep everything connected (you, the board, the handle/rope). When the rope gets up high and away from you it will throw you off balance. There’s a lot more to wakeboarding than I can fit in here but this will get you on the right track. You really should invest in a proper wakeboarding rope. The one in the video has a ton of stretch and will throw you off balance when start doing a progressive edge (you will learn about that when you sign up for a wakeboard school). Happy shredding!

For the SL and SA, we try to run the pitch about 7 to 7.5. Depending on your crew, you can move lead to the washed-out side.
Usually 50% of ballast and some lead will give you a rampy wake.
As @Tommy2Slow noted, there is big difference in a good wake rope and handle.
Drove up to the lake on Sunday to pull the toys and bring them home for the winter [emoji26]

Thanks fellas! Yea she barely fits, I built the center wall (to separate the working shop from storage) back when I had my 2008 outback V and thought I left plenty of extra room. The max fits with just a few inches from the bow and the platform. I have to open the door or walk over the platform to get to the other side lol.
I put the fans on a timer (that doesn’t repeat daily) so I can push the 6-hour button and walk away.
We brought this beauty home juuust in time for winter. Got in a quick demo surf before we purchased, but looking forward to getting that surf wave dialed in next summer. She's now patiently awaiting her new boathouse construction...
We didn't know every purchase came with a complementary kitten!https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...888a480f59.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...c0f20652ed.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...dacae62e96.jpg
