    Maybe its just me but I dont think they look the same. Mine apears to be very smooth in the flat of the wake and has a more defined lip to push. I dont know if that is from the platform mod or not????

    The passenger side should be bigger due to the prop rotation correct?

    Yes.

    IDK in my opinion both look washy. I am used to seeing the nice rich dark center to the wave and only see the wash on the tail end.

    These are both Stock ballast before i upgraded my setup. 400 in the rear and 400 in the ski locker.

    Well, the earlier two are both OBV wakes and you have the LSV. Also, the wake plate position can affect the lip. And, don't forget, the prop also affects the shape of the wake to a small extent. When we did the prop testing weekend we noticed that in general the higher pitched props that were worse for low end pull actually threw a slightly cleaner looking surf wake.
