Pretty stoked to get some tasty waves this weekend. Forgive the vertical video, my wife was driving and filming.
 
good job! what ballast and board are you using?
 
5'4" Hyperlite Broadcast. I'm 6'3", 215 and it does a decent job floating me.

I'm currently running an 800 sumo sac under right rear seat, 540 in center locker, and had a 540 on the swim platform. My wife was only person in the boat. I think an additional 800 under the left rear seat and the 540 on top of the right rear seat instead of swim platform would make an awesome wave.
