Got Sac?

[Nobody]

Ragboy...I I think this is the way to go for sure. We have batteries at the bottom of both lockers, does your RZ2 have batteries down there or are they moved? One last question, you into theme song; where did you get it from? I like it.

We we're out last weekend, as soon as I get a breather I'll upload the video's, pictures and our sac configuration specs.

There is nothing in the lockers, clean, very nice. If you watch the video, I show the inside of the locker, both are like that, nothing in them.

As far as the theme song, its just another cool indie band.

So I have to add this comment, for my TO brothers. Boys will be boys. With all the wake talk between me and RJ, like it was, long, and big, and nice. And RJ is always talking about the hardness of the wake, whether it is hard, or mushy. And then the 500 times we used the word sac, while filming this. Do you know how many "That's what she said" remarks we had to edit out?

Great fun with my son.

How do you embed YouTube video's?????

As for "that's what she said" stuff.....it gets replaced by Lil Wayne 24/7.

[ragboy]

You only need the video id of the youtube video. So here is a link to a youtube video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-98VposzMQ0

After the question mark, are name/value pairs, you want the value of "v", which is:

-98VposzMQ0

Sometimes a youtube link may have other stuff in it, like:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-98VposzMQ0&hd=1&type=embed

You still only want the value of "v". Everything after the "v=" and before the "&". Then click the youtube icon in the post, or manually type this in your post:

[yt]-98VposzMQ0[/yt]

Which is the youtube video id sorrounded by the YT tag. In your case, it would look like this:

I will embed here:

Wow Ragboy...how in the world did you get the video before I posted it?

OK...got your instructions. Thank you thank you thank you...very easy to understand and do. I promised vid's of our WakeSurf day so here's what I have. None of this was edited so I apologize for making you watch the whole thing.

Here's what we did for ballast. We filled the rear port tank (I think this is 250lbs), then filled a Pro X Series Tube Sac and put it over the top of the locker (port side), this is 350lbs, then we put another Pro X Tube Sac over the port seat, then another on the floor close up to the port side, then we filled the ballast that Tim White installed and I don't have a clue what they are but it looks to be two long tubes and about 250lbs (just a good guestament). Total weight was 1500 plus one person making this a grand total of "roughly" 1650lbs to 1700lbs. Taps set at 6 and speed needed to be 12mph for a clean wake. From here I'm all ears.

Nice looking chocolate wake. I gotta find a RZ4 close to my area, so we can experiment together.

That's a Pepsi wake. I think I'm going to do exactly what you've done with big giant locker sacks. Plus, you said that your sacks could have been made bigger....how much? (meaning taller). Also, why do I have to go 12 mph? Everyone else goes 10 or 11 max. Too bad you live so far away.

Looks like to me your doing just fine! Now all you need is a proper board and you will be well on your way.

I would also reccomend one of Ragboy's surf nubbin's they work great.

We go 12, but went 11 in the 24Ve. The extra height is only like 40 lbs. The thing is that you have 18 more inches along the side.

Thanks...I'll pick me up one this winter. Ragboy, whats-ya got?

Nice vids and lots of fun.

Here's a tip for Oxsana; I got this input from Big Kahuna cause I have the same problem and it helps although I'm still working on it. She dropped out the back of the wave so try to straighten the back leg which tilts the body fwd just slightly to keep u in the sweet spot a little better. I'm no pro but it worked for me and maybe for you guys. especially since u can go all yr.

BTW: Big Kahuna is Dennis Horton of the Walker Project as National Sales Manager. I've been using the 5.1 Bazooka and its a real good board for bigger guys like me.

Good luck

Yes, and that same big guy surfing in that video on like 4 different boards. Dennis is a great coach and surfer. "Anywake, Anytime, Anywhere" <-- That's Dennis.

Ragboy... you should do an "out-takes" video!!

Appreciate all the information here. Where did you get the custom sac from, how long did it take, and how much did it cost? I'm thinking of getting a similar "L" shaped sac to fill up my rear locker and the space under the bench seat. I'm trying to get another year or two out of my MC X2 before I get a new boat, which looks like it will be a RZ2 based on what I've read here.

I'm the Fly Higher dealer that did the sacs for Ragboy. He and I worked together to hammer out the dimensions so the new custom surf sac would line up with the factory surf sac and be basically a plug'n-play swap.

Id be happy to do a custom sac for you. They take about 4 weeks build time to ship and about 2-3 days to get the quote back. if you want to email me the dimensions (a drawing with dimensions and valve placement helps a ton) I will send it in and get you a price.
