| I am behind a 22 regal i/o with no tower, and having trouble jumping the wake. I know it will be easier with a tower or pylon. Have any suggestions? |

| yea wat i did was shorten your rope to 60 ft makes the wake smaller and the wake is cleaner for me. After that it took me 2 runs and i am already trying 360s and grabs biggest move for me |

how fast are you going? Sometimes it will help to speed the boat up as that will make the wake more narrow as well.

Dude that is way too slow... The wake will be washed out and pretty bad... Try 22 to 25 at fastest. 
Good luck bro

I agree - I am riding about 23 MPH....Try speeding up and see if that helps you out.

keep this in mind when you see the whitewash before the wake edge your hardest.
You will see the difference.
I used that as my guide for some time.
