Hey guys,

I have a stupid question...

What do you call the small pylon on your wakeboard tower where you attach your tow rope?

I know that it is called a ski pylon on a ski boat but can't figure out what to call the little one on a wakeboard tower.

I want to buy a new one for my tower and can't find anything online. I have a Tige 23V and the "little pylon thingy" unbolts. I wanted to know if there were other options for these, with lights, chrome, etc.

Alan

As far as I know, its just refered to as the tow point..

What do you mean by unbolts? You might just have to put some loctite on there or something..

I wanted it to unbolt. So I can change it. I was thinking about getting a new one but can't find anywhere that sells these things and don't know what to search under...
