Season in North Texas still holding...lake is in the 70s and dropping though :/

Finally found a buddy who is goofy so I could try setting up the starboard wave...lip is less clean, any Max owners know how to clean the lip? Is it all just in the tabs or does it look decent enough?

To clean up the lip you usually need to create more list. You can try to deploy the surf tabs further down but at some point you will loose power. Or, you can drain a little offside weight if moving people is not an option.

Buy a bit more lead and put it on the Surfside!

Lead is always a great answer!

That looks longer and cleaner than ours.

What happened to that poor board? Lol I’d like to see a video of that

Honestly I do not know.. could have just failed from use over time.. My husband was surfing and said he hit a fish, which none of us believe. He said he felt a big thump (I think that is when the board broke) then when he got up the next time it was bowing and cracked. I had just taken my run and the board felt funny but I thought that was just me. There was no wood or anything in the water.

A little peek at my GatorStep project...

I just have my sundeck walkthrough and swim platform left.

**PRO tip, get the 3M adhesive remover wheel**

Some pieces pulled right off without leaving any adhesive behind, the pieces that did, had a membrane over the adhesive that made acetone and mineral spirits useless.

p.s. the wheel WILL fling sticky adhesive boogers EVERYWHERE.

Totally forgot about my lead (thanks Dakota and Boone) all on the port side I use to offset the driver as my whole family is “normal” and usually it’s just me and the wife (recently she has been flaking and she would rather do home improvement crap, so hitting the buddies up to pull me, I have the whole of winter to do home improvement, right!?)

Will pull that lead out and swap that around as it’s easier and more advantageous than constantly filling and dumping ballast as we switch side to side when I take goody folks out.

if ur surfing lowell, I would believe that all the way..... peak, black canyon or cj, no way
lowell has some stupid big fish, and by that I mean they are big and they are stupid....
