So after my friends constant persuasion, I tried a Mission Delta that he uses on his Nautique 230. For the record, it does make the Nautique pretty fun to surf with a really nice, pushy, skim style wake. I installed it on my evenly weighted V226 and was unimpressed to say the least. Very little push and the wave was short.......I then tried the combination of the shaper and a slight list, it made it surfible but the wave was still short. I pulled the shaper off and kept the same slight list and the wave instantly gained height and push! Finally I weighted the boat for it's normal listed wave and it was back to big, long, and awesome! All of this was done on the regular side. Bottom line, the shapers might not be a great investment if you are a V226 owner looking for a great wave. I agreed to do this experiment looking for a way to speed up the regular to goofy switch times! I guess I will keep throwing lead and filling/dumping bags . ☹️
