Ronix doesn't make 1100 plug and play. Just an 1100 designed for an over-the-side pump.

The sumo 900s are proven to work well, the fittings on both Ronix and Sumo bags have been fixed to prevent them from popping out, but you must get the proper quick disconnect fittings for each.

The link dezul posted above is a bag that is made specifically for a 2015 A22. It should fit perfectly.

Any update on how the Sumo 900's and Fly High 950 worked out? I have just purchased a 2015 A22 and looking at ballast options.. Looks to me like the Sumo 900's are the way to go in the rear.. Not sure on the bow sac..

I've got a few months and ~50hours on my Sumo bags and no complaints or issues. I'd do it just the same if I needed to. 900's in the rear and the bow triangle bag.

How does it plane out with the 900s and what prop do u have? I have 800s in my 15 a22 and it struggles to plane with 8 people in the boat and the 2313 prop

You are filling the rears to capacity with 8 people? Are you running the wedge too? Any extra bow weight?

We fill the rear 750s about half way when wakeboarding, no wedge, and use an extra 400 bag on top of bow seats. This is with a light crew and the wake is money. 1235 prop.

Just got my Sumo 900's in also - With the Sumo 750 Bow Bag - I had the same problem getting on plane with 750's in the rear and a 650 Bag up front - I also have the 2313. My 2014 A22 - Ran the same setup (Except a 920 Up front) with a 2315 prop and it screamed, even with 12-people... I have a spare 1235, maybe that is the way to go?

To be honest I don't know. I've never wakeboarded with ballast full, I'm simply not that talented. :lol: I have the 2249 prop from the factory.

I run used to run full ballast (800s in the rear and bow pnp bag) but the planning was just getting ridiculous (15-30 seconds to plane). Now I run like 400lbs in the rear, front and centre full, plus the wedge... Planning is better but wake isn't near as big. In my opinion, when I first got the boat I could plane out with all the ballast full, no problem heck I could plane with the wedge. It was after I got the 25 hour service done that it started to take forever to plane. The dealer put different oil in when they changed it then what is recommended on the cap... Could that possible affect the performance of the engine?? Everyone's says that the torque prop is an over kill with the new engine/gear ratio but I would beg to differ

The 2015 A22 is running a Torque 15 x 12 - 2313 / 2419 prop with a gear ratio of 1.72:1 which as I understand is a different ratio than previous years. I find the stock 900lbs ballast and wedge with my wife and I and three smaller kids don't provide me at 200 lbs enough wake to surf effectively. When I add 2 more adults and 2 kids.. Night and day different wake. I am hoping that I can plane with two 900 sumos in the rear and a 750 in the bow. Any thoughts if that is a good ballast combination and if my prop setup will handle that ok?
