89 supra comp wake

[rludtke]

Last season I experimented once with four 80 lb concrete wall blocks from my landscape project. my stepson loved it, but clearly was a little intimidated by the wake. I never got to try it myself.

Over the winter I purchased two 250 lbs fat sacks and a high volume pump when I found a good deal used. I figure if 320 lbs is good than 500 lbs must be great!

Both of us are newbe boarders (I am an old slalom guy), but I am interested in trying it out with these new bags. What I really hope to be able to do is surf it, but I don't yet own a board, and I don't know if the wake will be big enough to support it. I have yet to try out these new bags, it will be interesting to see how it works.

Between limited floor space and freeboard, I suspect that 500 lbs of balast plus people is pushing the practicle limit for a TS6M. I don't know if I will try adding any more ballast weight.
