Thought I'd start another thread up on the wakeboard part. Been riding at 65 feet 23mph. Got a new rope that allowed me to go 60 feet and 21mph. Felt pretty good and was able to try more tricks. No luck on them though. What does everyone else ride at.
Boy is currently riding 70ft and 22.5.

whats the weight distribution
Stock ballast full and about 1500 extra in the nose and an additional 800 in floor

I ride at about 70' and 22.5mph, but that is on an Outback, so it is a little different that you guys.
60 ft. and 20 MPH with only center ballast full -- we aren't that good though but I have a couple getting better and better.
22-23 mph and 70-75 ft.
Ballast is gravity 3 plus 500 to 700 so 2500ish total.

we rida at 70' 23 to 24 mph
750's in back mostly full a little less if more than 4 people out.
center sack full, 500 lbs of extra wieght around the nose, and 400lb sack in the playpen.
what's the biggest difference between 60-70ft. my rope goes out to 70 and that's where unusually ride. is 60ft more of a beginner level? I'm def beginner status so if 60 would be better im interested. I haven't rode in 2 years because if my knee surgeries but this weekend I strapped in and took a few sets early Sunday morning.

Narrower wake at 60. You can run slower speeds and still land wake to wake and stuff.
slower in my case is better for now!! the 5 spills I took weren't so gnarly.

Not only a more narrow wake but its easier to keep the wakes clean at shorter lengths without running a lot of bow weight to lengthen it out.

so what speed, length, and weight set up should i run to learn a BR? i CANNOT afford to blow a knee out, I have a very labor intensive job and need to be able to go to work...
For my boat 18 at 55ft only weight the boat on takeoff side and make a slight turn into the clean wake side to create a nice ramp. The landing area will be all washy. This is a very low impact method to teach the backroll.Quote:

Varies by conditions but 65-70 feet and 23 mph usually.
