So you want your wake steeper is that what you are asking? If so then you will have to put more weight in the back of the boat. You will have to use sacs or lead or more people. You will also have to counter weight the back weight a little with some weight up front. This should give you a steeper wake.

no i want it less steep because im use to less steep ramps, since thats what the skatepark closest to me has, so i would be more comfortable with that shape

Unless it is a 03 tige' move the weight forward & it will mellow the wake out a bit.

Go to the local tire shop and ask for the lead take-offs. Fill up some rubbermaid containers and place em under the seats, in the bow, in the rear compartment. It'll cost ya like 15 bucks and works well. I have some from my old boat if you pay the freight 40 lbs each.
