How to Get a Great Wake Surf Wave :: Wake Surfing How-To Video

Achieving a competition-class wakesurf wave requires finding a suitable balance between the location of your aftermarket wake surfer, ballast amount and location, and the boat speed.
In this video, Mark co-founder of MISSION Boat Gear walks through these variables explaining how each one impacts the overall shape of the surf wave.

Awesome video. Very insightful!

What if my boat doesn’t have any ballasts? Will the shaper still make my wave surfable?

[@marcsmith5139]

I've got a Centurion, similar to the red one used in your video. I'm not getting near the size wake you are. Tell me more about your setup? How much ballast and where? Were you using the Delta? 11.2 mph? Thanks guys ... looking forward to some fun on the water.

I have an '05 Lightning C4 and have had a great wave with both 750s full in the rear locker, center ballast full and a little extra weight on surf side under the seats. I use a Ronix wedge and surf (I believe) around 11.4 mph.

Would like to know a little more about the setup if possible (ballast, speed, shaper location), have a similar centurion and can't seem to get anywhere near as big a pocket as the one in the video

What do you do if the boat doesn’t have ballist?

[@charlesbeaudoinalain]

Do you fill both sides ballast ? Or only one side when riding right or left

Do you have any info on testing on a direct drive Moomba outback 2005

You will bore the 💩 out of everybody until you get it adjusted.

Can I adapt this system to make waves in a jet sky? Have you ever seen in jet sky? thanks

Hi Fernando! Yes DELTA can provide some benefit on PWC's. Shoot an email to [e-mail] and we'll chat through it with you. Cheers!
