Both of these wave are less than desirable, I’m making a bigger/longer wave with more push in a 2011 Moomba Möbius (on a river with currents ands tides) neither of these boats are even throwing a shelf on their wave??

What speed were you suring at weighted? did you say around 600lbs of lead that you were running under the tower?

Would be interested to see a comparison video of two of the same surf boats one with the base engine and one with an upgraded engine. In what ways is the performance the same and different? Thx!

Do you have access to try other brands? Would love to see you test the most budgety of budget boats in the heyday surf or h22

Great shots! That wave is incredible!

We picked our SV 400 up last week and absolutely love it!!! It’s a beast of a wake boat!

Are you using auto wake during this?

Nice video. What are you using for additional ballast or "lead"? Can you link it?

Helmet is not required. Do you wear one when you sleep?

Loved the video thanks for doing these!!! Where is the best place to put an angle finder in an older boat to determine the pitch? My boat doesn’t have one built in? Thanks @wake9

Premier Watersports saved my a** a few years back. Drove down from Michigan for Memorial Day weekend. First day in the water after getting it back from a Supra dealer in Michigan. Hit the throttle, engine revs but no go!! Got towed back to the dock to find my prop free spinning on the shaft! Called up Premier late on late on a Friday. Showed up right at closing, they stuck around for a bit after to help me install a new prop key since my dealer used one that was maybe a third the length it was supposed to be. My next boat will definitely be purchased through Premier!!!

Sold our beloved 2019 Max yesterday and take delivery of our SV next week. Can’t friggin wait!! Our demo sealed the deal for the fam :)

What a great day !!! ❤

I’m surprised a veteran wake boat owner is towing a tube from the tower.

I mean caseho

Bro, I found queso

Wow…Excellent content. I am new to the channel and am just starting to go through the past videos. Our family is super interested in trying the sport of Wake Surfing, and we are now researching possible boats (looking at the used market to start and then once we confirm our commitment to the sport, will upgrade in a season or two. Question - Are there any used boats around the 30k range that you would recommend looking at? There is a Heyday WT-1 near us for exactly 30k but weren’t sure if that made sense or an older boat…Great videos! Thanks

I bought a '23 Max last year, I did the wakemakers bag upgrades right away. The goofy wave at 9.5* pitch and 5-7 roll around 11.2 mph is amazing with surf tab around 70-80. I cannot get the regular wave to clean up no matter what.. I put some lead in the back to get pitch at 9.5 and roll at -1 or -2 around 11.2mph and the wave just isn't clean.. I can start to clean it up with like 70-80 surf tab but never with 60. Any tips? This video makes the regular wave look amazing.

Can you clarify the positive and negative values for roll? 0 to -2 degrees for regular means the left side of the boat is slightly lower than the right side? 2 to 4 degrees for goofy means the right side of the boat is slightly higher than the left side of the boat?

I have a 2021 MAX, it was the first year for the upgraded 4,000# ballast. I have added the 860 bow fit bag and upgraded to the 1345's in the rear. Total 5550 in water ballast. I believe I will take out some lead and go back in with 400# to start with. If I understand correctly, fill everything 100%, put lead in the center of the boat, then use autowake to get it to the pitch and roll I set. Once it gets that and empties water in places to achieve that, I fill back to 100%, turn off autowake, move lead around to get the pitch and roll I thought was the best? Do I follow that correctly? I have watched several of your videos and want to verify before I go and try to set this up. Thank you.

What boards are you and your wife riding? Do you ride the same speed as your kids. I’m a big guy and having a hard time getting off the rope. Getting a custom soul craft made. Just added lead and hoping that’s the ticket with your settings recommendations

Great review Dude , I’m sold on it , I’ve never had any kind of boat , so smaller is less intimidating for me with out compromise , thanks again 👍🏼

I recently bought a 2024 Craz and I'm really glad i found your site and this vid. I've learned a lot from this and your many other videos. There's probably no reason for you to do another video on the 24 Craz since it's identical to 23. But if you do and offer up some other settings I'll be watching. I'm enjoying your settings in this vid. I had to use lead to get the 9.5 pitch with only a couple people in the boat. My question is how do the flow 3 yaw plates deploy? Do i take it on faith that they deploy automatically when i use default 60/70 plate positions. Is it all the same for manual mode and AW? Thanks.. keep the great content coming

This helped a lot!!

Great video. We just picked up a used 2017 Craz and will be dialing in the wave after I replace the ballast pump impellers. What's your recommendation for measuring the pitch since it doesn't have autowake? Is an inclinometer app on my phone good enough?

WOW aweome vid I sold my Malibu and bought a mastercraft and HATE it, I can’t get a good wake like my Malibu to save my life. I assume the angles your describing is while moving not stationary? Right? Yesterday I put your numbers to the test and got the best wave yet on this POS mastercraft. Please help me perfect it.

I've been dialing in Supras for 12 years and this is the best video I've ever seen on how to weight a boat.

You are crazy if you think other manufacturers arent testing their boats and ideas on the water.

Sold my Malibu for a mastercraft now I can’t get a good wake. Best recommendations for x30 to get long clean wave ?

I’m in utah, we have a lot of Great Lakes here, but a short season. I’m in the market for a better boat. I currently have a 06 Malibu 21’ VLX. Great boat, but small ofcourse. I’m looking at several boats in my price range $60-$90k is where I’m trying to stay. I’ve narrowed down to my market which is 2013 mb 24’ tomcat, 2023 moomba max, mb b52, or I did find a 2014 supra sc550. We pull tubes and use a boat in for lots of things, we also go to big lakes with choppy water and big waves (at times) like lake powell, bear lake, but I’d love to also be able to throw a killer surf wave. I’ve had good luck with the swell surf system, I’m curious from your experience, what boats within my constraints should I consider in your opinion? As much as I’d love a new Supra, our short season and my optimal budget I’ll be perfectly fine with less. Any insight you have is appreciated

Awesome video! I would love to have a deeper conversation about tabs and wake shapers.

How do you measure pitch? Is that displayed on screen?

Hi 👍👍👍♥️💜💙💚♥️💜💙💚

Hey! Just wanted to let you know I appreciate your videos! My midlife crisis purchase is a brand new SL 450 - in part due to your videos! Thanks for all your efforts! Looking forward to many memories in our new boat!!

If you could choose between a 2019 SA450 and the 2019 SL450 what would you choose ?

Great video, thanks for sharing! Have you demoed the 24 SE? Mine arrives in a couple months!

When we demoed the SV I was blown away how great the wave was. We only used 400 lbs of lead in the surf locker with one driver in the boat and the wave was super firm. Like concrete firm. Tons of push and easy recovery and good length, especially for sub 23’ boat. It was better than the SA and SL waves I’ve demoed with lead (not super slammed tho) and the SV wave was better nearly all around. Loved the boat and would upgrade out of my dialed Max for it.

I mean, this is really sick. That wave is crazy big. But they should get extremely easy to set up with great waves out of the box for $200k on a 21.5’ boat. Hopefully we will get that mojo with 6000lbs of ballast this good.

I've been following you since your old RZ2 days, and I even bought some of your Wake9 bags back in the day. To this day I always appreciate your content. But I have a bit of a brand question as it pertains to your discussion on pitch. In all the boats I've ridden, Centurion, MC, Supreme - lesser on Nautique, but they all run really nose high to make a wave. So high in fact that it's hard to see forward. It's likely even more than your 12 degrees noted here. However in my TIge 21ZX (and previously in my 2013 Z1) I needed a TON of nose weight. The boat runs better and the wave is bigger and longer when you get the nose down, and it can take 500 lbs of lead in either of my 21 foot boats on top of 3 humans and water ballast up there. So this is opposite to what you are saying in this video. So my question is - what is it about Tige that makes it opposite to seemingly ever other brand? (and unfortunately I've never surfed a Supra)

I always look forward to your videos. The illustrations on the “interruption” were easily understood at least by this dummy lol! Thanks so much for the time and work you put into the videos. Hope to see you all out sometime this season.

Awesome review!!

what engine is on this boat? wondering if the 400 is under power

The real question is what RPM and gph is this boat using. Is it a good ski boat as well. Your info is great.

ฝ

hello, someone knows where can I find and buy lead??

Hey thanks for the video! He mentioned SL being perhaps easier to drive with the steering wheel pull but do the Supra rider profiles make it so a novice driver can essentially just go with the cruise control/ surf settings without tweaking anything? I need a ride where my wife and friends that don’t have boats can easily pull me. Thank you!

You're a good dude and it's a pleasure to watch your videos and gain knowledge from your commentary . Thanks for stopping at our home Lake in Elephant butte NM.

Hi, great reviews, well done, do you intend to test soon the New Supra SV? Thanks
