Thank you Deerfield! - I am on the way up to the lake this weekend and can't wait to try the new board. I just hope the ice has finished melting. As of yesterday it was 60% gone and it is nice an hot today!

Well I made it out to the lake today and got my first chance to wakesurf, I am hooked!!!!!! I had an easy time getting up but was unable to find the sweet spot, however that did not stop me from surfing well. I was acually very surprised how good I was after so many years away from ocean surfing. My 13 year old daughter got up also on the first try and she had the sweet spot but was not ready to let go of the rope. Pics to follow..........Bambam

So you are going off the ski pylon then? It does seem like it would be easier off the tower. I now will be working on the boat setup, yesterday we had nothing inthe boat except a few small girls while I was out, I didnt fill the ballast or anything. I think that if I set the boat up better I will be able to find the sweet spot easier..........

Ed I felt like a teenager all ove again, it was like I was back in HS looking for that perfect wave. I can't wait to do some more and to also try out some different boards.

Great Pics BamBam! If you love it now....wait till you get rid of the rope! You'll never want to stop.
Your 08 Mobius LS boat is just about identical to my 07 Mobius LS. This being the case, I have a season worth (95 hours) of tweaking the boat set up to get a good curl. Here is a brief summary of what seems to make a decent curl on our boat.
- Wake plate (if you have it) UP all the way
- All Ballast tanks full
- Speed 10 - 11 MPH
- Put everybody in your boat on surfing side (passenger side for you)
If you realy like to wakesurf and don't always want to load your boat with chubby friends...spend the money on some fat sacs and a tsunami pump. I have a few different bags (2 x 250 lbs) and one 750lbs bag. Depending on how many people in the boat I use one, two or three of them. One behind the engine box and one on the surfing side beside the engine box.
Attached is a pictures of our port side curl with the above configuration, 3 adults in the boat, and the two 250# sacs in an 'L' shape around the engine box. Disclaimer, my wife makes it look too easy. They curl looks much different with my 200 lbs body on it.
