cwview Posted June 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 Thanks Pickle, i have 2800 stock. I am going to play with it this week. I am going to try 2800 stock, 400s in locker and 700 up front to start. maybe ride 23 75 feet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imondi Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 This is full stock, 350 lead in the pickle forks, 22.2 at 70 ft. I used to run 23 at 75-80, but I decided to slow down this year and it has helped my riding alot! I suggest trying full stock and if it's too steep, throw up to 600 in the nose. I have found that when you really slam them, the wake gets steep and you have to run pretty fast to mellow it out. That said, I prefer a mellow Malibu wake over a steep one!

maverick Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 My friends like 1/2 stock ballast (~1500lbs) plus 400 in the front at 22mph... 70ft. I ride 75ft, 22mph, full stock (2800)... 600 in front. imondi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pickle Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 after that weight i imagine a new prop is in your near future!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giesh164 Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 I found with my old 15 22 tomcat, that more bow weight over stock created a nasty lip at the top of the wake. I found it best to run 3/4 ish to 1/2 stock. Then a big ole sac on the floor in the cabin area. You may want to try that If your having a hard time getting your wake dialed. Seemed bow weight did the opposite of what you would expect it to. cwview 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
