Nice pic! Looks like that is his daughter Jess too. What is she holding?

I don’t like those long progressive waves. You can’t do much except surface tricks on a skim. The height even at the curl is so small.

My buddies for my 50th bday had Parker Payne come out and ride with us for 6 hours. He likes that long progressive wave as well on both his Matrix and Phantom. He can do any and all of his tricks on both skim and surf style board on a progressive wave. He falls way back beyond the 2nd pocket and builds so much speed down the line with 1 maybe 2 pumps. I've watched tons of videos on YouTube and Instagram of Parker, Sean, Keenan, and a ton of Ashley Kidd (OMG!!!) but it is totally different spending a day with a pro surfer that is just back there free riding and throwing down not worried about getting the right shot or putting the right 6 trick run together for the competition.

I’m sure this is going to be crappy quality from a screenshot of the actual video. 100% front, 100% port, 100% starboard. Wakeplate/smartplate 0%, starboard surf plate 80.

She was holding a video camera. Not sure what kind it was, but I recall him talking about it on one if his videos. He was shooting some video from the boat and his drone.
Jess is awesome. Very nice girl and she can surf. It's fun watching her surf b/c she has such a good time. Two ladies on the boat that day were throwing 360s!
We talked about that. They want to have one in the fall as he announced on his site or videos.
He was going to check his commitments soon for a go/no-go, then make an announcement.
Word gets around fast. The openings are filled in 15-30 mins.
Norris will make a great event. Houseboats, wake companies down here, great surfing lake, and Bubba’s Brew.

I realize this is an old thread and most of the questions regarding surf setup have been discussed ad nauseum, but, I ran into this video that provides info on how to access the inclinometer calibration for the vision system. As we all know, an accurate Inclinometer is essential for a properly working autowake system. I did not know where this setting was so the video was helpful in that regard. Maybe most of you who have the vision system are already aware of this. For those who are not, here it is:
Its towards the end of the video. The rest is just basic surf setup stuff that we are very familiar with.

Has anyone switched to 50% wakeplate? I love his videos, and reviews. Its just confusing that everyone talks up his knowledge of setups, yet no one actually uses his setup lol. Im sure Ill try it out eventually. Right now I'm just focused on surfing, so I'm not making any changes to my wave.
