Gantlin transom bag is well worth the $. Puts lbs where it needs to be. I could surf with stock ballast and transom bag but wasn't pretty at all. Modified wakebooster and it helps a lot. I think I need a ski locker bag, off-season set up to lengthen wave and more lbs.

Sadly no, shortly after this install life got in the way and now we have run out of time before the weather turned. So it will have to wait for next season - not super happy about that, but it is what it is.

I installed the TVW a month ago and it took a little messing with to tweak the ballast but the wave is amazing. 2016 212x - Full stock ballast, Gantlin transom bag, I have a center locker bag that I moved to the back floor and filled about half full but it was just two of us so a couple other people and that wont be needed. The wave was better without the thing on the ladder but will work with it a little more soon. Hope you have as good experience as I did, wish it wasnt cold outside
