Z1 surf wave

[chpthril]

i dont know how u do it!!!! we had the bow sac filled, the rear left filled, my 90kg mate sitting on the left, and my 120kg mate on the platform and a few girls sitting along the left side, and we just couldnt get it

i tried changing speeds, and taps but the surfer just couldnt stay on the wave.... sigh.

but you can do it with no ballast. maybe its the board? ill get a pic of it.

A pic is a good place to start with suggestions. Also, what board are you riding and the weight of the rider?

here we go,this isnt my board but it basically looks like this, its a phase five board.

[tigesinaus]

im only about 70kgs.

sorry i dont have a pic of the wake as yet, will geto next time we go out, which could be a while.

What length board is the ph5, looks kinds short. When we surfed the 52' Cruiser Yacht, I surfed the L/F Custom 4.3 with no prob, but could not drop the rope behind a CC211. Me too big, board to small.

May need bigger board or more weight, or a combo of each.

[tigesinaus]

yeah im starting to think it may be the board.

i just dont get it tho because i have been behind my friends unweighted 20v on the same board and it has worked for me, and i have seen him doing 360s and things in it.

Well, that's odd there The 20V actually has a decent looking surfable unweighted wake.

how much weight in all those areas?
how much are you putting in the rear corner?
the z1 likes a lot of weight to make it nice.

just using the factry tanks so far so that would be

250kg in the front
250kg in the rear passenger side
and about 210kg of pple over the back corner.

so is 250kg about 551lbs?
