Well, I just ordered in 1050LB's of Ballast and Perfect Pass and a Bimini Top. I can't wait to get out there with a huge wake and perfect pass!!

Pics when I get them installed.

1050 lbs of ballast, whats that cost to ship ???? LOL kidding of course.

Just sounded funny the way you wrote it. :)

I'm hate to climb a soap box... but you really shouldn't wake surf behind an in/out. Ive seen some gruesome accidents doing this. :eek:
Or are you talking about just making bigger waves for wake boarding. :D

Shipping it in on a pallet i guess. I wanted them to ship it to me empty but they just said no.. lol

Surfing is for the ocean, Wakeboarding is my passion.

That's cool! I will be curious to see pictures of what the difference is with the water ballast. I would imagine you are getting a pump-n-dump set up?

I'm trying to not pay attention to this sort of thing. I see folks doing it at the lake. All i know about it is what common sense tells me. I'm scared ill like it. I am back on the water as a Father and have not water skied in prob 15 years or so. I'm not fat or anything but I am about 30 lbs heavier. I bet it would be ugly. It looks like it might be easier on the knees than a slalom ski. I'm sure eventually ill end up trying it. Just more money to spend on the boat, LOL.
