2012 mxz and Mission Delta Wake Shaper?

[gobiffgo]

I’m trying to figure out how to figure the delta Wake shaper with my boat. Not sure how much power wedge, ballast, etc. What’s the best way to configure it?

Find a bunch of friends to take out as moving people around is the fastest way to experiment. Fill the ballast, put a couple people in the bow. Put the mission as far back as possible and try to get the mission just under the surface of the water when surfing. List the boat to the surf side a bit and make sure your swim platform is not digging into the wave (less weight or more bow weight) to raise it up. 

If you are not an experienced surfer it might help to find one to bring out because it will make dialing it in a much quicker process.

We have a 2012 LSV.  We will fill all stock ballast tanks (I have a bow tank)and wedge is between 60-75%. Wedge will have significant impact. (More wedge is not necessarily better I find) 
We have delta placed just below the waterline and line it up with the “back” of the Malibu logo.   Too deep or not deep enough impacts how clean the wave is.  (watch mission website - they have a good video)
speed set at 10.8
If have 6+ people in the boat this is a good  wave.  Even with fewer people it is good wave but does lack some push. 
Will fill additional bags in both real lockers and a bow bag as well which increase size of wave and more importantly the “push”. 
having people sit surf side also helps.
