all depends on the boat man...Me riding behind a Tige at 65-70' is gonna be a lot different then Chino rippin behind his Air Nautique.
diff company = diff hull
diff hull = different wake
diff wake = different line length
just play around with your own boat speed, weight, rope length and find something that works for "YOU"...afterall it's all about personal style...just make it look sexy |
