I thought we proved the difference between Straightline and Flyhigh was not enough to make a difference. I measure both inserts and they were almost the same size.


"Almost the same size" implies one is later than the other still. Until someone fills a Fly-High 750 which holds approx 720 and a Sumo 750 which holds approx 800 at the same time with the same pump...I'm going with Sumo. Even then, the Sumo will still hold 80lbs more. So if someone is running two Sumo 750's they are actually getting 1600lbs whereas the two Fly-High 750's are getting you 1440...that's 160lb difference. Not that the original question is about 750's but it's the most common sack used.

The reason for my statement was cause I really hate talking impericals when discussing bag weights. Everyone has a different setup. Not everyone uses vent lines and I don't know what the full weight is with vent lines. I read the bag weight thread on wakeworld several times and know there is a difference in brands as far as capacity goes.

Thanks everyone for the feedback.. The boat will be in Seattle (so elevation will be at sea Level).. As for weight I was looking at this package: http://www.wakeskating.com/products_inf ... ts_id=7112

Any thoughts on the ACME prop? do I need it or the standard one sufficient?

Why doesn't it say the capacity of the front bag? I personally would get with boardstop and see if they can't hook you up with a comparable deal including a prop that you are interested in.

The sumo front bag is 750 for the 2015... That takes up all the space under the seats. I doubt it fills to capacity. Pretty sure there is no way to get any additional weight under the seats unless you throw lead in the nose.

As far as the prop... My 2015 has a 1235. I Ran the 1235 on my last boat with the 400. The most weight I'll ever run is the pnp 600s wedge, bow and people weight. I'll have no issues with surf speeds and wakeboard speeds will take few seconds to get on plane.
