Currently have sumo 600's right now, and thinking about buying the 900s now. But curious how well they fit. Anybody have any pics?

i dont think they'll fit ... the FlyHigh 750s barely do ... i'd also worry about the side walls as the 750s bow just a tiny bit. They only really fit after I re-rounted the drain to allow the bag to go all the way to the back. Theres a little room on the height, just not width and length.

Just because you have the capacity doesn't mean you have to fill them to where the seams are about to bust open... The bag should conform to the locker just fine. Wakemakers has a kit to reinforce your engine divider panels if you're concerned about it.

Look...for you new Axis owners (and a couple sound like first time wakeboat owners), us that have been around Axis and have had ours for years and a few of have had multiple Axis models...we are not going to steer you wrong. The 900's will fit all day with NO ISSUES, just take 30-45 min to re-route the rear ballast drain lines. A lot of us have had the 900's in 2014 and older A22's with 100" beams. I had Fly High 1100's in my 2011 A22 with no issues. My current A24 that has a 102" beam, just like the T22 has, and I use Sumo 900's and they fill to capacity and NO ENGINE DIVIDER WALL ISSUES. If it makes you feel better get the Wakemakers engine wall kit, it's all there for you and inexpensive plus super simple to install. Get whatever you want as far as ballast bags but don't lose sleep over it. The Sumo 900's will fit...I don't care what other person says they wont because they do. If you run a small crew get the 900's, if you run a crew of 6-7 adults (kids aren't much ballast) or more everyday then you can do the 750's and maybe keep some lead bags around to add for the days it's only 3-4.
