How I weight my Malibu for surfing (video)

[petefranc 20]

I threw together a quick edit from this past weekend explaining how I weight my 2002 Wakesetter VLX. Hopefully this will help some of you who are still trying to dial in your wave. Let me know if you have any comments or suggestions!

ok for starters the claim at the beginning that this works for any boat is false. you are using your wedge. MC and nauti dont have wedges. really got my hopes up with that statement as i have no wedge.

other than that decent video

i was running too fast i think so the speed ref. helped. now i just have to overcome that wedge statement. and figure out what weight arrangement i need to overcome that

Speed is all relative. I have to run 11.3 to produce something similar

What's with the dead hornet?

Thanks! Good point on the wedge. I'd suggest slamming the back corner to help take place of the wedge. Good luck!

Yeah, I should have specified that speed varies on different boats. Thanks for the heads up.

It's not dead! It actually landed on my hand right before I started filming. He hung out on the boat for a while and then flew off. But yeah, I know, very random!
