How good are these lines?
Do they last a long time?
Do they crack, bend or chip?
Sorry for all the questions. I have been out of wakeboarding for about 13 yrs now but I am starting back up (Finally). My buddy has a Malibu boat and we want to buy him a real nice rope and handle combo for his Birthday.
I want to get this combo but with the Coated Spectra Rope. What do you think? I know for a fact that he wants the Diamond handle cheater grip.

they get tangled really easily. its a pain to get them un tangled all the time. but they're good ropes and last a while.. i suggest the the accurate a line or x line depending on the length you need. real solid rope.
i had that exact same package not long ago. the handle is awesome, it feels really good! no complaints there. i just didnt like the rope. |

I want to get a X line for him but we wanted to keep it close to $100 and I can't find a combo with that type of handle.
Wake cord has one combo but it is $135.
Bridges on your bullet combo what rope did you get the 100% non-stretch Dyneema that came with the combo or the coated spectra line? |
