I could get it to 9.5 and achieve auto wake but I had to run the smart plate to like 77-80. I have 300lb of lead that just cam so I was going to put that in there and try. I have some videos. Im just trying to get them uploaded so you all can see

Your Smart Plate setting is not helping you. You want your smart plate @ 25% or less. Seems to me you need more weight. To test it out you can always just fill the boat with some friends for a trip and see the difference before spending the $.

Agree, way too much plate at anything above 25%, absolutely will kill your push.

That sack may be 500#, but the mondo nose is so short that your sack is not much past your fulcrum point.

Your goal should be 8.5-9.5 pitch with less than 25% plate. All the plate does is lift the rear of the boat out of the water.

As Larry stated above the plate deployed that far down just lifts the rear up and in doing that you are actually counteracting some of your ballast.

I also agree with Larry in that your additional 500# while it might be helping a little is still very close to your fulcrum point so it isn't giving you that much of an advantage. When your lead shows up I would stuff it as far forward in the bow as you can and see how that does.

Do you happen to know what your pitch is with all ballast full and 0 smart plate?

so what do I need to do ? put lead in the nose compartment under the bag when I get it? I would upgrade the bags from wakemakers but they said they didn't have them out yet for my boat.

it was like 12 something with smart plate 0

Personally I would try putting lead on front seat as far forward as possible without the fat sack.

See if that is enough leverage to get to 8.5-9.5 pitch with less that 25% plate. If not, add humans to the bow until you get to that pitch.

Assuming you are also hitting your roll numbers, that wave should look good

Even where your wife is sitting isn’t helping bring the bow down.

Leverage makes a big difference, even with the wake 9 video where they add 500# lead to bow, there is a guy sitting on the bow filler seat.
