    We have been working on a series of videos to help answer some of the questions that I field all the time via email, facebook, etc. By far, the question of "how do I setup my boat to get a wave like in the videos" is the most asked question. In this 4 part series I intend to give you the answer. In this episode we talk about how to get your best pitch and roll, and where the heck to put that lead.

    Hey Ragboy, great videos by the way, what was your ideal ballast setup on your 2012 Z3? I have a 2014 with the VX shaper, hope to get a custom Z3 bad in the regular side as that is what we surf 95% of the time, but I'd love to know your recipe you used for such a good wave in your 2012. I have the pro ballast and will add an extra bag in the bin in front of the port v drive compartment until I get a custom bag. Any suggestions?

  • @shakarocks

    Great video! I’ve found that a little less plate than the factory setting gives me a better wave. Cleaner and more push. Stock is 65-70 surf plate for regular on my 19 Moomba Craz...my best wave is down around 50-55 for example.
    One of the SC engineers explained to me that too much surf plate engagement actually lifts the non surf side out of the water too much. Thereby removing some of the displacement and effect of ballast.
    YMMV but a bit less plate setting than factory has worked well for me!

    • @wake9tv
      @wake9tv  Před 4 lety

      Yes, when you push down the plate, you are fighting the hulls ability to make its best, clean wave.

  • @ZeD69420
    @ZeD69420 Před 3 lety

    I needed 1100 lbs of added ballast around the boat so I got 1100lbs of leadwake with 350lbs of it in each back storage compartment for a total of 700lbs and 400 lbs in the bow of the boat under the seats. 200lbs on each side of the bow. And the wake is amazing its super long with a huge pocket and it's got a tall wake. I would love to try the 2022 G25 Paragon with 1500 lbs of lead ballast in the same configuration as on my boat and see what the new hull designed surf wake feels like to ride. I am going to try moving the weight around this sunday to try out getting the pitch to 9 degrees up and a roll of 0 to -2 degrees and see how it changes the wake.

I have an 06 Avy, fixed middle tab. Any suggestions using shapers instead of systems though? Have a Mission Delta.

  • @robertho17
    @robertho17 Před 3 lety

    Hi Ragboy, The information you give us is pretty amazing. I understand what you say about how to adjust pitch with lead weights but I am a bit confused about how to adjust the roll of the boat. I have a Tige RZX23 with 4100 lbs of ballast with the Taps 3 and at the moment I think I get the best wake when the Taps3 is set the next one down from the top. But you mentioned about the need to 'fully" engage the surf system which I am not doing right now. Can you please kindly clarify. Many thanks

    • @wake9tv
      @wake9tv  Před 3 lety

      So what I mean is that on most boats, I would leave alone the surf tab settings, which is taps3 on your boat. Just leave those at default and adjust the wave with weight. On that boat, my memory was that you have to list over 5-6 degrees on goofy for a clean wave, maybe a bit more, and only 2-3 on regular.

    • @wake9tv

    Thanks for this. I've just got a new Supra SL and struggling. (Missing my Nautique so far.) What would you guess is the fulcrum point on a 2020 SL? (right now I have 400 lbs on each side right in those corner back seats and 200 lbs in the bow and I'm not loving it. Also isn't a 50 setting on the plate the same as 50% down? Wouldn't a neutral effect be with the plate out of the water. i.e. 0? (I'm new to the the listing game. I've been a crabber until now.:-)

    • @wake9tv
      @wake9tv  Před 4 lety +2

      The SL wake is awesome, you shouldn't be struggling. If you don't see a wave like we experienced with our 2018 SL videos, then its probably just setup. You want about a 9 - 9.5 pitch and 3 deg of roll for goofy, and -1 for regular, and speed of 11.4 or so. xtra lead should be put right behind the driver in that storage, and then in the same place on the other side of the walkway, evenly distributed. You may email me at support - at - wake9 - dot - com for more help.

  • @True-Scotsman
    @True-Scotsman Před 3 lety

    Sorry if this is a dumb question, but do you just leave the weight in that same place 100% of the time? I was thinking you would have to move/adjust the weight (depending on which side is surfing) to get the desired wave. Am I mistaken?

  • @dankintx
    @dankintx Před 4 lety +1

    Great advice on the wakeplate at 50! What about the surf tab setting (what is considered default as you mentioned)? Typically we run the surf tab - (not the wakeplate) at 75 (and we all surf regular football)... any advice for what that might be? Moomba Max for reference. And yes I'm the crazy guy with 1k additional lead and 750 extra water ballast bag.
    Your point about listing too much to one side is incredibly accurate!! I have at least 750 more all to the surf side.. and while the wave is SUPER clean, you're totally right... it has a weird, rolled over shape instead of a lip. You nailed it!
    I will bring a clinometer next time we are out (we don't have autowake) to test and get a feel... really great advice!! How do you best "zero" the clinometer? On a flat surface before you go out? Ie the floor ... or do you zero it on the boat sitting still (i imagine That's a bad idea)... THANK YOU man! Great advice... can't wait to try.

  • @leanderwalch2953
    @leanderwalch2953 Před 3 lety

    Hi Ragboy, great video! One message I got out of this video is that it's key to get right pitch and roll angles for the perfect wave without caring about % of ballast and also keeping the wakeplate neutral - I would completely agree with that, however, when I only have like 3 people on the boat vs 8 and I set the angles up the same way (in terms of pitch and roll), some riders tend to struggle to stay in the wave even though it looks perfect (which makes sense as we're displacing less water). So I'd argue the perfect pitch and roll angles also depend on overall weight I've got in the boat. e.g. the less people I've got in the boat the more pitch I need. Would you agree with that?

    • @wake9tv
      @wake9tv  Před 3 lety

      Yes, that is why I also mention "DRAFT" or displacement. To make the same wave every time you have to consistently reproduce pitch, roll, AND draft/displacement. I mention how you can measure that by how much water is above your swim deck. The more water above the deck, the more you are displacing.

    • @wake9tv
      @wake9tv  Před 4 lety +1

      They are nice boats, and make a good wave, but over the years I have seen them deteriorate as far as people having issues with quality. Also, in the past, I have found the surf gate system in the past to not allow for us much "customization" of the wave. Some of those things may be better now, but the quality issues have primarily been the factor that has kept me looking elsewhere.

I struggle a lot every single time we go out to get that perfect size on my wave! I’m so jealous of all these new boats that set a perfect wave at the Click of a button haha! Are there any potential pointers or tips you may have for my particular type of set up? I know you’ve dealt with quite a bit of boats in the past just wondering what you would do!

      I think the same applies. I would leave NSS fully deployed to make the pushiest wave, and adjust with pitch and roll. Not adjust by partially deploying.

    I have a 2018 Moomba Mojo. Didnt come with autowake. What iphone app can I use to find my pitch and roll?

    I have a 2017 Moomba Mojo and the goofy side wave is money! The regular side surf wave sucks! I need help!

      Daniel Robles, safe to say alot of boats are that way,, it's because of prop rotation, port side usually needs more speed.

    One thing you miss on all your vids is gasoline. The weight of the boat is going to change on the boat based on fuel used throughout the day. May need lead to balance that as well.

    • @wake9tv
      @wake9tv  Před 4 lety

      Well, gas is less dense as your water ballast. Gas is 6lb/g where water is about 8.4lb/g. Add to that that gas tanks are usually right in the center of the boat, sometimes a bit rear. On a boat like ours with auto wake, the system will automatically adjust with adjusting ballast if needed. We always fill our tank before surfing, and usually are only out half days so at at the most get down to half a tank and so its rarely noticed on a boat that is displacing over 12k+ lbs. It does make a difference, but if you keep your tank mostly full, its not much of an impact.

    "Because I go to Autowake, boom, boom set it and I'm done." - On my boat it just dumps ballast.

    • @wake9tv
      @wake9tv  Před 3 lety +1

      it will do that if you don't put the lead in the right place. That means that in order to put the boat at the right pitch and roll, it needs to adjust ballast. If you place the lead right, that will not happen, or be very minimal.

  • @collin9085
    @collin9085 Před 3 lety

    Lead Wake website says that their ballast is 100% steel. So it will definitely rust. I prefer lead. Will have to look elsewhere.

      If that works for you, keep doing it. I have ridden many bus like that, still like my setup better, but if it works for you, kool.

    50% wakeplate lifts the stern too much out of the water on a Moomba.

    • @wake9tv
      @wake9tv  Před 4 lety +1

      That makes sense, then use 25 or 30. Good idea to leave yourself a bit of quick adjustment. The point is not to use that plate to make your wave, which you seem to understand.

      not so bad when you get in a groove. Some videos, I script ahead of time, but these longer instructional ones, I go by bullet point notes, and then have to edit out the hums and hahs.
