Video: 2008 Moomba Outback V Wakesufing with 2400lb of ballast
I filled all 3 ballast bags of the gravity3 system (1200lb) and I added two Sumo Sacs on the surf side (750lb + 450lb). I put the wakeplate 1/4 up @ 10.5mph. Only 2 people were in the boat.
Note: The stock prop was replaced with an OJ 14x14.25 wakeboard prop to handle all the weight!
Don't laugh too hard at my video editing skills. This is my first time with windows movie maker. lol

Try this too...lift the wakeplate all the way up and then empty the middle all the way....drop your speed to 9.8 and let us know.

Draining the center and putting the wake plate all the way up will allow the nose of the boat to rise and push the back deeper into the water.
I was trying this this weekend myself and it does make a different size and curl on my wave.
I went back to filling the center, putting the wake plate up and right around 10 and got a nice wave with some distance to the pocket. 2 people were able to free rope it finally so its a matter of me getting my balance and stance on the board down.Malo <--- Means--Evil or Mean One.

But...losing your bow weight will shorten the sweetspot...Just my 2 cents, I fill the bow, and I fill only my 750 on the surf side, with wake plate all the way up, and I can get that same wake, or at least very similar without 1200 extra pounds on my 08 ObV...
