Axis Wakeboard Boat Forum

I had one bag from my old direct drive that I would put in front of the back seats. I have one still in the box from wake makers so i would think I can return that one. When I talked to wakemakers on what I needed to install in the axis, they just told me to get a couple of fittings that screw into the bag. I guess I should have waited and asked you guys first. Lesson learned.

Steve I will call you later on today so I fully understand

At this point, since you are switching bags anyway, I'd very strongly recommend going with 750s or sumo 600s instead.

The sumos use bigger ports and have a vent built into the bag, so they are easier to vent.

I am speaking from experience here. I have a T22 with sumo 900s (which basically weigh the same when filled as the fly high 1100s). I am running a sumo pnp bag under the bow seats, 150 in lead tucked in the very front of the bow, and a fly high 1000lb triangle (on its own johnson reversible pump) on top of the seats. I also have the 450 motor.

The only way I can run my 900s full is if I have a very light crew (2-3 in the boat max), all sitting forward in the cabin, with the seat-top sack full enough to bounce a quarter on it. Must have calm water because that bow is low when you come off plane.

If you have people in the boat (say 6 or so), it's just too much weight, even with the 450. Bow rise will be insane (and I also have the 4" seat riser box) and you'll end up hitting a "speed wall" at under 11 where the boat won't go faster.

If I had it to do over again I'd do 600 sumos for sure.

If I order the sumo's. Do you know what fittings and hose? Or should I just go with the wakemakers rear plug n play kits? Are the wakemakers sumo brand? I thought they were there own brand but from the picture it looks like they are sumos.

The WakeMakers are their own brand, their picture is crap. The fittings for the Sumo and WakeMakers brand are the same.

The bag to P&P port fittings are (1" NPT to 1" Flow-Rite)

The hose to the above fitting are this (for vent line)

Make sure you get SS hose clamps and some extra feet of ballast tubing just in case

Vent/overflow tapping into drain line.

Per side you will need:
6 ss hose clamps
1 Y fitting
1 1" male fitting for bag
1 90° 1" female quick connect fitting
3' of 1&1/8" ballast line
1 1&1/8" wake makers check valve.
