My surf wake test

[csm]

Thanks i will speed it up a bit and i was looking at the IBS, does it ever stop.. the upgrades..

I agree with bumping up the speed. My wave doesn't really start looking good until the 10.5 - 10.7 mph range.

I also run about 500 lbs more than you are, and it creates a great wave.

I'll be out tonight after work so will try to take some pictures. Will have a boat load of people so it should be an awesome wave!

When it's just me and another guy, I have 750 in the locker (probably gets 90% full), 540 on the seat, 250 on the ground next to the seat, ski locker full, and another 250 on top of the ski locker. Usually run the wakeplate at 50%, and around 10.5 - 10.7 mph. That seems to be what works for my boat. The wave is pretty tall, and it's a fairly long pocket.

csm, you running the standard prop. i always feel the moomba cruise is sluggish getting back up to speed, where if i manual throttle it it is pretty responsive.
i have the 13.7 by 17.5 prop

You may not need to go quite as fast with that prop. It will throw a very clean wave for you. (Also, speeds people post are not always that accurate- better to test your own setup and watch the wave.)

yeah thats what i was doing the other day on my lunch hours... playing with the wake and added the bag in it place of two to thre people

I do have the same standard prop, but I'm considering upgrading, more for wakeboarding than for surfing. It's actually fine for surfing. I don't use Moomba Cruise, I use Perfect Pass, so the throttling is manual for me anyway until I get up to speed.

Alright, here are some pictures from last night. This is with 1 female driver (100lbs maybe) and three guys with an average weight of about 200lbs each, rear 750 locker, 400lbs center locker and the Intergrated Bow Sac. Speed is set at 10.3mph on Perfect Pass and the wake plate all the way up. One of our other friends bailed on us so this isn't the biggest wake I have ever made but still pretty good.

This is my buddy Ryan:

That looks like a great wave to me. Gives me hope for my 06 OBV.
