05 21V Ballast Question

[kklupenger]

I have upgraded my stock ballast to the 1180lb. bag up front and two 400.lb. bags in the rear. I was thinking of trying two 750# bags instead (trying for a good surfwake). Has anyone tried this? Did it stress the sidewalls or the floorboard?

I would think that one 750 bag full on the side your surfing and the other side empty would be the best place to start. If you put to much on one side the wake usually gets very steep and shorter. Depending on your surf skill level sometimes not as steep and longer is more important than massive and steep. Are you saying you want to fill 750's one on each side or 1500 in one corner? Is 1500 in one corner even possible? I don't know the size of the rear compartment.

for surfing I was thinking one 750 full on one side at a time. I also think 1500 on one side (not spread from front to back) may be a little sketchy.
