Anyone know of a web site that sells shorter ropes for pulling behind a Seadoo? Everything I've come across is like 70-75 feet. What's a good size to use? 40 - 50ft?

Just buy a 70 ft with five foot take off's down to 50ft. or else just tie off the rope where you want it.

The ropes usually come in three sections, just remove two. If it is still too long, remove the built in rope from your handle.

i ride behind a seadoo on a 40 foot rope. buy the shortest rope with the most takeoffs.. or yeah just tie it off. with a longer rope, it seemed the back end of the seadoo was pulled more when a rider was edging out.
