Autowake settings
I played around with Autowake on my 2017 Mojo this past week. Results seemed hit and miss.
Anyone find settings different than factory default that work well?
I have Surf Max package with 250 lbs of lead under each bag.
Looking to upgrade rear bags, but am hesitant on the ENZOs for storage reasons.

I never use autowake for surfing. It wants to reduce ballast all the time.

This was with the pitch set a 8.5 roll -4.0 surf tab at 60 % the wake plate would vary from 50 to 90 % to keep pitch , speed was around 11.6 ,sitting still we sat at -1.8 with the roll after auto wake was achieved , boat set up was 1140 rears started at 100% center and 500 bow bag 100% 150 bag under bow cushion , 125 of lead under bow bag, 150 bag under port rear seat in front of rear bags and 100 in lead there as well and only a driver in the boat. One of the many variations we used, usually don't bother with using for surfing , but it can be done , just need to find the style of wave you like , get lots of weight , and adjust accordingly almost forgot , we had a factory rear 650 bag that was about 80% full on the floor as well auto wake wave.jpg

I'd be interested in other people's opinion. We just got our 2017 Mondo yesterday and when the salesperson was demoing the boat and showing us how to surf, he had to turn AutoWake off because the ballast kept dropping to 80%. Is there a way to use AutoWake for surfing or should I just shut it off like one of the earlier posters suggested?

This was running auto wake at 9 pitch -4.5 roll and speed was around 11-11.4 , surf tab was around 55% with the 1140s in rear around 300 under port seat, and 5 total on boat , 1 in bow 1 driving 2 port seat and I was on the sun deck in the middle, ballast ended up around 80 surf side 100 starboard 100 center, as you can tell we were loaded pretty heavy to the port side, low plate setting and port bag not at 100, since it was small kid surfing we rolled with it and it was just great, if you don't want auto wake to empty ballast you need to put people where you want them before it starts to drain, any aid you can give it to help achieve what your set points helps a lot ,we had enough displacement that I wasn't to concerned, about the port side bag not being full , this was her 4 time surfing this year

ill try again for you, its a cool little video, and yes , we do play with several variations depending on how much crew or weight , or what we want out of the wave, but it definitely makes easier to go back to style of wave we like, or see where were at. this should do it

Not sure what is going on, I couldn't open the second link, but I rechecked first link and this time it worked or at least started to work. I got to see about 1/2 of it but then it started buffering bad. Maybe I need to get my 10 year old son to teach me how to watch you tube videos properly. hahaha
What I did see looked awesome! How old is your daughter and where are you riding? Those trees in the background look so cool. Quite a bit different than the landscape and banks we have in TN. And she looks like she is having a blast. Honestly, about all I do anymore is teach kids and new people to ride. Watching them progress, ride ropeless for the first time, cut back and forth or try surface spins is so rewarding. Makes me love my job even more.
Anyways, glad the system is working good for you and you are definitely an advanced user as you have figured out how to fine tune your passengers, additional ballast, and settings to get it dialed in properly. Of course I am a little biased, but I really do think the new surfing technology is pretty cool stuff. Like you said, if nothing else, it really helps get repeatable results. And when you are trying to teach kids or new people, not having to worry about getting a surfable wave really makes the day more enjoyable! Have fun out there!Matt Brown

She is 9 , this is her first year surfing , she had about a 6 min run, was pretty cool watching her use the most of the wave, we were riding in north west Montana, family has river front property there, we like to go there when it gets too windy on ponderay lake , definitely different than TN, but I thought TN landscape was pretty cool. and I don't post on you tube very much at all, was having trouble setting it up to share , the first link was private and the second should have been public, definitely enjoying it that is for sure
