Finally went rope less!!
Big thanks to everyone here giving great advice on weighting the boat correctly and the do's and don'ts of wake surfing! Big shout out to Mike, Kane, Moombadaze, Erik (E4Nash) for all the PMs. After finally going rope less and actually tossing the rope in the boat I may just give up wake boarding all together haha
Surf Set Up
1100lb surf side rear
400lb where cooler was removed
400lb center ski locker
400lb in floor of bow
Boards
Hyperlite Broadcast - what I learned on
Ronix Koal 5.0 (surf style) - current board
No pic without the actual rope tho! I know, I know... "If there's no pics, it didn't happen..."
My camera man was too busy watching and trying to learn, which he did!!! We had him up and surfing in 3 tries on the broadcast, it was great!!!

Finally went rope less!!
Thanks guys! Yes, fun stuff once you really start learning how to handle your board!
Wolfe - I'm way too cheap to spend $55 on a surf rope, but I do like the idea of a T handle
Maybe I can break this old ski rope up, braid it, and fix the handle into a T...2004 Outback Blue on White *Sold

Yes Exactly you almost feel like your going to catch the edge at any moment but your not LOL. That's why i like to say if you feel like your really leaning on the nose move your back foot forward as well, because then your whole weight shifts forward and it also keeps you from mashing your back foot on the brake and falling out of the wave.
