I'm digging the noserider, it takes sooooo much weight on the nose, it's going to be a good learning board for the boat

Our wave is getting dialed in! Picked up an additional 200# from leadwake. There was still push 2 or 3 towel lengths beyond the full length of the rope! My rear leg is killing me from having all of my weight on it

Wave looks killer! So how much lead you running and where in that pic and how many people?

 

Nose rider... a Soulcraft?

Liquid force, it's a gigantic long board type board, tons of fun

 

So the photo above is just my wife driving in the boat. The lead is 600lbs total, 50lb ALL the way back in the lockers on each side. There is a ledge next to the rear gates, I put a 50 on each ledge, it's as far back as you can get. They'll probably never come out, wayyyy too hard to lift 50lb at that angle. Then 100 against the dividers. 50lb under each rear seat. The other 200 I shift to surf side, with more crew they'll go to the bow. All pnps 100%, surf side ram 100%, non surf side 20% , speed 11.4

 

I think the 50s all the way back are the difference, at their location they probably create 3x the weight, like a brick on the platform.

Wow! That's a fair bit of lead for the FS33. I've only been on the 33 with two to six people in the boat. Didn't think it needed any lead. But I guess it's a need vs. want kinda thing?

 

Thanks man.

We definitely don't need the lead, the wave is killer without it. But after having 300lb and 250lb friends in the boat and being on that wave, I was sold on having it

Cheers! She's six, loves water but not crazy about trying to surf. This was our first step towards it, trying to keep it fun for now, the rest will come.

3 years old... that's awesome! post some pics of your progress.

[Fivebar2 176]

So cool. I just showed my 4 year old daughter the picture and asked her if she would like to do that and she said yes as long as we're moving slow! she love to watch surfing with me and keeps talking about wanting to do it. Baby steps

I haven't filled the regular bags yet this season. Few friends showed up and all ride regular so we finally got around to it.

 

[DarksideR 1,679]

That's some solid heelside riding! Wave looks really good too.
