2014 F22 Stock Ballast w Slap Surf

Hi all! Thx in advance and my apologies if this has been covered elsewhere. I’m thinking of purchasing a 2014 F22 w stock ballast, wedge, and a slap or gate system as shown in the pic. Don’t know the exact specifics of the gate. Our family is a beginner surf family and we don’t want ballast bags in the cabin area. Will this setup suffice and what type of a wave do y’all believe it will produce? It’s our first boat and I don’t want to shell out $50-$60k and not get a good wave so any other suggestions are greatly appreciated

Oboyskibum thx so much for your info and thoughts. I believe you’re right on the Gen 1 cuz that rings a bell w something the seller said. Without the extra ballast it’s 1800# stock, correct? Is the wake wo your extra ballast ok? Wud love someone to post pics of both waves, w and wo extra ballast if able. Thx tons!

My 2015 F21 with Gen 1 and extra 400 lbs in each rear and 350 in the bow throws a nice wave.  It's not crazy big but plenty big enough to have fun on.

 

I just purchased a 13 F21. Not sure of the difference between our boats. Having a hard time getting a surfable wave. Even with plenty of human ballasts. Have a swell wake shaper as well. Any recommendations / pics?

This is from the cookbook, specific to a 13 F21.  I'd start with these settings as they should get you close.  Ping for any questions.
