Nice, still looking for the weather to get a bit better here. We're going to the lake next weekend, hopefully mother nature will allow some fun.

While surfing, what setup are you running on your boat?
What is the make of the that board(s)?

Great video, guess just the dad in me, but there has been a lot of posts about injuries from using a regular rope vs a surf rope. Too easy to get caught in the slack and lose a finger or worse. Just some advice.

That is why we use a surf rope only. There is no handle to get twisted up in. I do not recommend using a wakeboarding rope for surfing.

I am running 750 lb in the rear with 90 lbs of lead. I also had 1100 in the center with 6 people on the boat at a speed of 10.8 with wake plate %50. Most of the time I have a additional 400 lbs on the rear seat and another 400lbs in the bow when I have that extra weight it really cleans up the surf wake . I am using a liquid force 4'9 board.
