does anybody know where I can find some brackets for the swim deck on my SX?  and possibly another deck... wood or fiberglass?

Johnny:

How did you build your risers?

Any pic's of the surf wake with the new risers?

Thanks,

I built them out of 1/2" aluminum plate  because that it what I had available.  2 1/2" wide on top and bottom and 1/2" thick web in middle if that makes sense.  I welded them together and drilled out the bolt pattern to use the factory holes in the swim deck.  this is how the wake turned out.





It's definitely better than before.  Our boats are set up for a goofy footed surfer and would be better on the other side but it works alright.
