 Posted: Apr 17, 2004 7:45 pm Post subject: Ski rope vs Wakeboard rope |
 |
|
Alright, I understand there is a difference in length and size of handle. Last year was my first on a wakeboard and i was just using a ski rope, and I'm wondering about the advantages of buying the wakeboard ropes. I don't want to spend all that money on a new rope if it isn't going to make a huge difference but i just need some input on why they are so much better. Thanks alot. |

Ski ropes stretch.
Wakeboard ropes do not stretch.
You will notice a huge difference your ability to get air while jumping.

nope... try again.
Certain ropes stretch others don't... no elastic needed
