The stock teak wood deck doesn't affect the surf wake like the fiberglass one does. Take a look at my pics and videos. You can see in your video there's a 10-12in section of the wake right off the back deck that goes up and falls into the port side lip. That's because of the glass deck.

Our wake comes out super clean I'll get some pics next time we are out the water.

Nice call on the tube sac for the cooler. Gonna try that one.

So the only extra weight you add is the 750 to the rear lockers?

Tube sac is golden!

We just bought a Phase 5 Oogle and really like it so far. Hoping to get some calm days an some boarding in too.

Has anyone tried a fat sac in the port storage locker under the radio head unit where the batteries are located?

A 400 lb Fly High would work perfectly there.

I actually just had a 400lb fly high delivered today for that reason. Gonna try it out this Friday, but was curious if anyone had already tried it.

I've had a 750lbs (950lbs) W707 in the X25 under the radio and forward. Fits easy. You can fit three 750lbs sacs lined up from back to front on the port side.

What were your thoughts when you had this setup

Pretty sure that was my wife's foot that caused that wash effect ... our port side wake is super good. Still tweaking the goofy side. The prop rotation works against you and you have to load more ballast and spread it out along the entire starboard side of the boat.

Fun to tweak things and see the results ...

Definitely fun to play around with the weight. The wash I'm referring to is your swim deck for sure. It's very consistent on your wake on the port side. You can see a little splashing from your wife's foot but that isn't causing the effect I'm referring to.
