I'm am looking for the best Taps setting to maximize the size of the wake I can make behind my '04 Tige 22V. I have been messing around with fat sacs (I got two 400lb locker sacs, one 750 bow sac, and a 250 center sac). I usually ride with just the bow and the center sac filled with 2-3 people and the wake is decent. If anyone knows better places to place the fat sacs or the taps that could help me make a massive wake?! I usually ride around 21.5-22 mph @ about 75 feet behind. I want to get booted to the heavens! Thanks!

To start, the TAPS system is there to fine tune and shape the wake, it wont build it.
Why aren't you filling the two 400# sac in the rear?Mikes Liquid Audio: Knowledge Experience Customer Service you can trust-KICKER WetSounds ACME props FlyHigh Custom Ballast Clarion LiquidLumens LEDs Roswell Wave Deflector And More -
Yeah I understand. I am asking about the taps because when I have the boat fully weighted (with the two 400lbs in the rear lockers), the wake is just way to lippy (washy on top and on progressive edge tricks i.e. backroll/raley/Frontflip, I get caught up). So I am wondering if people put taps on 7 when the 22V is fully weighted? Or put it on a lower setting (Plate flat/downward)? I want a beefy wake that is not so washy/lippy....Comment

Yur too slow, speed up. Or take about 10ft off the line.Originally posted by wakeupkp View PostMikes Liquid Audio: Knowledge Experience Customer Service you can trust-KICKER WetSounds ACME props FlyHigh Custom Ballast Clarion LiquidLumens LEDs Roswell Wave Deflector And MoreComment

I'm riding a 24 footer so I have to add more weight. But 21.5 - 22 is way to slow. I ride 24.5-25.5 at 82.5ft. The more weight you run the faster you will need to go to clean it up. Id say with the all your sacks filled you'd want to ride around 23.5 to 24. It doesn't seem like 2 miles an hour makes that big of a difference but it does.Comment

BOBBYSKY IS TELLING YOU HOW TO SKY!With no weight in my 07 22VE i usually run 22mph at 70 ft 22.5 at 75ft and 23 at 80 ft.So even with no weight in the boat i'm running faster than you with weight.At THE WAKEBOARD CAMP they told me don't worry about speed, look at the wake. Set you line length and increase speed till the curl in the wake is about 2 feet behind you.This will put you in the meat of the wake.setting the taps towards 8 will steepen the wake.MOST riders prefer somewhere between 3 to 5 for their settings on 75 ft and longer lines.For comparison when i put 2000 lbs in the boat and ride at 80ft i run between 26 to 26.5 mph.SO I WOULD SAY RUN 25 WITH WEIGHT AND SEE WHAT YOUR WAKE LOOKS LIKE THEN.I do all my own stunt work. hey ya'll watch dis.Comment
