Wave looks good for an old boat on a three-event hull!  That era 21 LSV/VLX on Diamond hull is so versatile it's crazy.  What's your ballast setup?

Yeah wave was as good as it can be on that boat I believe!

That particular day, the setup was:

Manual wedge down, 600# surf side, 200# non-surf side, 250# in the bow, nauticurl, but what helped is the 8 human ballasts on the boat!

If we are less people I will fill the ballasts more but that setup worked out pretty well

Do you have a bag under your bow seats? I would always stick a 500 lb fat sac on the front surf side seat when we'd surf my dad's boat w that same hull. That was before suck gates were a thing.

We put our 540# bag under the middle filler cushion in the bow when we want to use the seats and fill it to about half its capacity so its not in the way. I don't have MLS ballast..

When we're just 3-4, i'll fill it completely on top of the bow seats.

Bow weight is a must to get some wave lenght!
