    Here is my wakesurf wake of my RZ2 without any ballast and with just me, wife and kids (my oldest is 10).

    We definably need more weight!

      That's what he found. Just barely surfable with no weight, so I bought some Fly Hi sacs and never looked back. We can surf with as little as 700#'s and a couple of peeps.

            Ok, we really need to fix this problem. If we add some weight to this that will change drastically. That is just a bump for a wave. We need to make it a wall of water then we can call it a surf wave.

              Now, that's what I am talking about it.

              would 2 400lbs do, what do you recommend?

                800#'s on 1 side will give you a nice wake. IMO

                    Where do you put 1300 lbs?

                    Do you have any storage left?

                      I run it from the rear storage and up under the side seats. (Enzo Sac) I only keep life vests in the v drive storage. I moved everything to under the glove box, The tubes under the bow cushion. The anchor under the drivers seat. I thought it would be a pain but it is working out ok. Wake and surfboards up on the racks. I use my built in Ice chest and then have a small and medium soft sided ice chests when needed.

                      You also need a few people my size to really make a nice wave.

                        Do you have pictures? I would like to have an idea what it look like.

                          Not sure what picture you want to see. Here is a link to the custom surf sac on one side of my boat. The other side is similar but bigger.

                                Holy crap, that is huge!

                                I guess I will have to rearrange the way I store tubes, life jackets, board, etc inside my storage right now.

                                I have a 3 person tube that takes tons of storage. I have small kids and that's their toy. I am not sure what to do with it without the storage.
