Surf Setup's on all Malibu's

[ADDICTED2WAKE]

07 Vride

Goofy

750 RR locker

450 Factory Center

300 bag in bow walkway

4 or 5 people and it's a pretty decent wake

If we only have 3, then i'll add a 450 to that seat in front of the locker

Wedge down

With the wedge up, wake is longer (rearward) but not as steep.

I can't ride ropeless with the wedge up (6' 235lb on a CWB razr) but witht the wedge down, I can ride all day.

When surfing on the driver side, I have this setup:

400# in rear.

150# in lead on the floor behind the driver.

400# on the floor behind the driver, another 350# on top of that.

300# in the ski locker.

150# in lead on the driver side bow seat.

I typically run between 10.5-11mph with a skim style board.

With just 3 people in the boat, this is a good medium sized wake. When trying to make it bigger, with 10 people in the boat, the wake shape isn't as good. What am I missing as far as weight distribution goes?

I was planning on replacing the rear sacs with the larger 750# bags. Am I missing bow weight?
