use the search function & you'll find a ton on this.
you can also check out how folks have set up their Mojos and/or 13 LSV's as they are similar:
start with:
1,100 in lockers (surf side full, off side 50% or less)
370 under seats (surf side full, off side empty)
bow tank full
IBS full
wakeplate 75% to 100% up
10.0-11.2 mph

as of right now im running. 1100 bag in port rear locker, front tank plus 650 ibs under bow seats. wakeplate in bow up-all the way, running about 10-10.5mph. have tried filling some weight in the opposite locker but it has a negative affect at this point due to my lakes shallowness. I do have more ballast bags on order that wakemakers is saying will ship out later this month to use when we go on vacation in july.

sure thing, only weekdays off till vacation are june 25th and july 4th at this time, dont think i would even try to go out on the 4th unless you can be at my lake at 9am, otherwise I will be sitting poolside with a few cold ones close by.
work does not allow for enough time of to surf.Hey, Its Moomba time

Re: 2013 LSV surf set up
I PERSONALLY think the surf setup is different for the pre-2013 models. The freeboard is much higher. The seats are higher, the captain is higher, the gunnels are higher, etc. The point im making is the center of gravity is much taller on this boat so it LISTS side to side more readily/easily. Just being around for a while and seeing how this boat responds over the different years, this boat likes corner weight and nose weight. I weighted my boat with the 1000lb "L" shaped bag on the seats plus stock ballast plus ibs and you couldnt even stay in the wave.
