    Can you do the same toeside and switch? What is your speed at that length? Im curios to know if the wake is still clean at 85ft.

          how in the world did you get a clean enough wake at 80+ feet? i'd like to know your speed and amount of ballast.

            maybe you should contact the guys over at bulletlines.com and get a coated spectra winch line they are selling. then you could go anywhere from 600' to 1000' ft back. j/k. but if you really wanna have some extra line laying around you could cut it up and make your own sections.

              you could just borry a buddies rope and knot the two together and measure off and mark like 5 foot sections and do a make shift not to the tower. i still want to know how you get a good wake that far out.

                um, 80 feet and it's still clean? you must have some special edition tige. Mine isn't clean after 70

                  Try some different weighting. I can get mine clean to 80. Usually, it's more weight in the bow that does it.

                    Yeah I can get it clean, just don't see the point, but I'm not a pro boarder so.... I have had it clean at 85, but it's hard. I was just being silly mainly

                      dude i can put it 15 feet out in the flats any time i want, regardless off where the rope is.(i ride 75). just chill out and try to take your jumps higher.

                        i got used to riding 75+ back back a few years ago because i sucked at weighting the boat and had to ride fast and far back. been going 70-75 with the weight right and its been much better. but you guys are right its a chore to get the wake clean that far back at normal riding speeds.

                          My wife ran over the rope a few years back. Now in the rare event that I have to go longer, I saved the non damaged 5 foot sections and can add those. I have only gone with one guy who needs it, though.

                            with four hundred in each back locker four hundred in the nose, another four hundred in the walkway, stock hard tanks in the middle left and right side, four people in the boat not including rider, taps at 5.5ish, and 24-24.5mph our '06 22ve holds an amazing wake at 82 ft
