Hey guys. 2022 23 lsv just delivered and like others need to balance a bit with some weight on the port side.   Curious to hear everyone’s favorite option for weight.  Using lead? Or steel pellets?   Have a fav brand/maker?   Where do you put it?

thanks for helping the newbie.

https://www.leadwake.com/ is the most common that people are using.  Usually 50lb bags.  I think they used to ship free.

In my 2021 23lsv I ran with 2 50lb'ers right behind the batteries in bow, then kept 3 50lb bags under the spotter seat  which I could shift around as needed.

This is where I run the lead weight with nice results. 575 PNP bags in rear lockers. For my wife, regular rider, I drop stbd rear PNP bag to 75-80% to give slight list to port side, favoring her wave. The red circle, in bow walk through, is where I keep the 200#, from bow, when not surfing.
