rope

Hello,

From what I understand, I need to upgrade me POS ski rope to one that won't stretch. I talked to a dude at the store, and he said 'low stretch' would be fine instead of 'no stretch,' at least for my skill level and the cost. Unfortunately my wallet's gettin pretty thin these days, is there a decent rope/handle combo that I can get for less than 100 bucks? How much of a difference is there between low/no stretch lines? Thanks-- and, I'll apologize in advance for the silly newbie questions I'll throw at ya.

go with no stretch. if you dont youll want to b the no stretch line in a year or two anyways. pretty much all no stretch lines are the same the only thing you will be able to tell a difference in is the handle. go to some shops and test the grips and get the mone you like best.
