no real need to weight it Wink

If you got a trim on your ski try using it to clean the wake as much as you can...

the trim is where its at..like nekkie said. its different on all jetskis and i know some dont have one. but if you do, mess aroudn with it some and find where it throws up the best/cleanest wake. no need at all for jet ski ballast lol

when i skate tehres usually three of us out there and teh extra ballast helps there to be a cleaner weight but theres no where to put a fat sack or n/ething

lol when i first started riding we put a cooler strapped to the back with wieghts and water in it and i did a double up haha it was so funny how stoked i was, but as long as ur wake is clean ur fine but u can always exsperiment with set ups.
