I am a more avid slalom skier than wakeboarder. Switched from an outback to an Outback LSV at the last minute based on the "feel" of the boat. The LSV has been great. Lots of room, very comfortable and I think worth the money in the end.

However, even though I knew that I was sacrificing some skiing wake when I went to the LSV, I thought with the wake plate that the wake would be better than it has so far. I haven't had the right conditions with the right driver to really experiment with the wake plate to "dial it in". I realize this takes some playing with, but my first reaction is that all the way down should give the best wake. It is kicking a pretty stiff rooster at that point and I have had to lengthen the rope longer than I would really like to ski at.

Anyone slalom regularly behind an LSV and have any suggestions flatening the wake? It is still much better than an i/o, but I'm hoping to make it even better.
