Im lost without the PW thread!!!!

yea, I'm learning this, particularly since I added weight back there. I noticed that when my son would climb in after wakeboarding, a lot of water would drip down between the panels...

Yep I had a ton of people onboard doing some surfing lots of in and out of wet people and squeak....squeak... Figured it would dry out... next day same thing

Don't overload your boats with ballast while your kids are learning...there is absolutely no benefit. Technique Technique Technique

Hey lohe, are you leaving your taps at 6-7 or doing like was said earlier about bring it down to 1 from a stop?

If I do that it helps with the hole shot.

I only had 1200-1300 in ballast.. but most of it in the back

I agree 100%! But I was too lazy and short on time to lift the bricks out of the lockers...

These are split up evenly back there and they are about 35# each.

Hrm, I been doing the math all wrong. That's closer to 800lbs I guess. LOL!

We put 0 ballast in our 22i until my son learned his first backroll.

I you do weight it...start 50/50 and tweek it from there. You will need more in the front compared to your direct drive. I really liked the intergrated bow sack in our Tige.

I didn't see that, but won't respond since I don't have your boat. I do believe it will handle the weight if you get it more balanced front to back.

Ya I think thats my issue I was just used to my 21i and adding bow weight sank the dang thing lol.

I need to balance it out a lot more.... But also need to figure out how... I could get a bow sac but that is where I keep my anchor and buoys/bumpers.

Yep, I see 735# in red ones alone

How much are you running up front?

None at the moment LOL. But it planes fairly fast. Usually there is 100-200lbs of human weight up there though.

do like me and order one of each from Chp to figure it out
