Does anybody have a picture of a perfect wake???? Everybody always puts up a post that says to check out his wake and then everybody tears it apart wit out really flaming the guy..."that is an awesome wake but its too soft, or rampy, washed out, steep, peaky, soft, etc, etc, etc,.

Everybody has a different opinion. So who has a perfect wake?

You said it yourself, there is no such thing as it is judged entirely by personal preference.

Wake seems to be a combination of your board (3-stage vs. continuous), the amount of rocker you have, board size and of course whether it's steep or mellow. It's all preference and everyone's got an opinion.

There is way too much Photoshop skills on this board. You guys should seriously start your own graphics design studio... of course, then you would actually have to BUY a copy of photoshop.... LMAO!!!!

Here is the wake from my 83 SN 2001 with 1100 tons or weight, I had about four people on board.. It was a little hard to get on plane, but once it did, it was alright... Very Happy It's just a little hard to get over the lip...

I did them all a little differently. At the heart is copying and pasting new layers. Then there's distorting, resizing, rotating, cloning, erasing, etc. If you know how all the tools work, it's all pretty obvious.

Not really, I thought it would turn out to be a "Check out how big my unit is" Thread, but the photoshop pics are great. Good for a laugh.

It's funny...When I first looked at this thread I thought the original picture looked like a very nice wake, and it still is. but after looking at the photoshopped pics for a minute or two I then scrolled back up, and couldn't believe how small the wake looked. haha Laughing
