I guess I go a bit slower. I'm between 17 -20 depending on the day and weight in the boat. The wake is a little nicer slower.

17 seems a bit slow to me. the wake may be nicer but i find that going around 22 or so makes it so that the wake is still good and i can cut a lot harder. if i go 17 it feels like i am sinking when i cut.

i go a fair bit faster, not by choice though, 24-26 or about there on an 23' I/O, 70 foot line plus 5 for handle.Any slower than 23 or there abouts, the boat gets off plane, and any slower than about 25 the wake is super wide (huge beam).

Wow, apparently crack can really do some bad stuff. Hey um smoke crack, how often do you break something when you fall. Ok, anyways I like it at about 21-22, not too fast and it makes a nice wake behind our Malibu.

17-20mph... I usually ride at 19 but its hard to keep it at a certain speed so it varies from 17-20. I love it and the wake is nice and big.. pretty wide though.

No, I have progressed from the 15-16 I am proud to say. Your dad said it was mostly 18 and every once in a while he went 19. Unless I had water in my ears or I was shivering so much that I couldnt hear straight, but I dont think thats the case.
