I posted that after a friend of mine popped my rope doing a raley. The rope popped right as he got fully extended.

Good tip! I did the same thing with Marty's rope last summer! I also had a handle break when one of the rope attachments snapped...

I got a Masterline neo core last season and cut it on the #$% prop about a month later, I tied it w/ a good knot and its holding great but I am just waiting for the raley nightmare to happen to someone!!

I tell you one thing, it can be a beyotch trying to point to the Wake Tip without the drop-downs getting in the way.

You too?

Yeah it's like you have to slide UP to it, you can't just move over it.
Pat, get to work will you...lol....

No broken ropes yet, I've seen some broken bones though....

PEACE

I agree, I was just about to complain about that pull down getting in the way of the waketip.

As for the actual post, It's not the rope that the sun got to me on, it was my Ultra Sucs, left them on the dock for two days out in the sun when I was gone, and the overlay ripped the next time I rode them. Take heed.
