You have to run at least a semi surfacing prop (like a Bravo1) A prop designed for the blades to come out of the water on the top half of the rotation. Heres my buddy in his AT with B1's he's just jacking one of the drives up. (hes actually slowing down while he's doing that in the pic) but even so you do it at the last second as you buzz past a dock or a waterside bar and believe me it blows everybody's mind. Try the same with a non surfacing type prop like a Mirage and the prop just lets go and spins long before any real roost. Want roost? throw some B1's on it.

Prop alone wont do it. You have to get it to break the surface and if youre going to do it with trim rather than shaft height, it is EXTREMELY hard on u-joints and gimbles

My 26ZX does it since I installed the 25p Revolution 4 prop. I dont trim it any more that with the B1. With the double stepped hull and a high X it happens with ease. I know that we are cookin when I look back and see a 5 foot tail coming up out of the water.
