Did 900s in the rear ... 650 up front. Should have done 1100 cuz they fit. When we only have 3-4 people in the boat I fill up the 540 and put it on the surf side.
For me it was all in the board. I moved from the Byerly Buzz to the P5 Razz and it was night and day. This weekend I was testing out a TINY Danielo Carbon (4'3") and it was dreamy.2014 Black/White Mojo

Get the 750lb IBS, it is only $15 more than the 650. It is on the same page and drop down window as the 650 on wakemakers. I installed it on my '13 mojo and it fits/works great. It lengthened my surf wake. It took me 5 min to install, stupid easy to install. I plan on upgrading to the 900's because I have heard reviews that the 1100's can bury the surf system. How is the flow surf system on your boat ? Is it worth my investment ?

Get the 750lb IBS for the MOJO from wakemakers not the 650. It fits perfect in the MOJO and is super easy to install, it took me 5 minutes to install it. Not sure why everyone talks about the 650, my guess is not that many people know about the 750 because it is a new product. It will push up the cup holders as someone previously mentioned in this thread. The fit is perfect otherwise, you will even still have a little room left over in the bow on each side for storage.

Anyone have pictures or a diagram of the IBS install in a Mojo and do the 1100s fit the rear lockers and fill completely without any modifications to the locker? Just got my kit and planning to install this weekend.

I see almsot all Mojo posts in this thread, but I'm looking for some guidance on additional front ballast for my '14 LSV. Our boat defintiuely needs more nose weight, and I don't have enough chunky friends to help out! It looks like Wakemakers only has a 500 lbs IBS option for the LSV. Is there any other options you guys would suggest for additional bow weight for an IBS? I don't really wanna throw concrete or lead shot in my boat as we are skiers as welll ...
Any thoughts for an LSV guy looking for some help?

Front ballasts for surfing?
I've got a 2011 LSV and I'm pretty sure my IBS is 650. Works well too.
