whats the difference between a regular handle, and a launch handle? The launch handle looks like it has an extra loop on it. What does thet help you with? spinning? Thanks  |

the extra loop? im guessing thats the wrap handle. The wrap handle is used for grabbing all the way through your spins. you grab the little hand and put the big one behind your back and then when your in the air, you let go of the little handle....i know sounds confusing buts thats just my bad wording  it can be used for other things as well...for example a wrapped KGB. i dont know what the launch handle is but im guessing its a handle made specifically for wakeboarding? well if it is then its different from a regular one. a regular one has stretch in and a wakeboard one doesnt. i like a wakeboard one better. hope i helped you out |

It's crap. Get a straightline with a static (nonstretching) rope. If you get a nylon rope-you might as well buy a bayliner and a jetski-shaped tube. Oh yeah, and don't forget to drive around in circles around my wakeboard run to chop it up REAL nice.

It's actually not too bad if you get on the water by like 6am, then it usually dies down again in the evening. sometimes it is flat all day though.When it's blowing and rough i just get out the windsurfer or jet-skis.
As for the rope, it is a static rope, i just got it today. It is a cutting edge static 3 section rope and handle with the loop for spins. any good? My dad picked it up for me. Gotta be better than the nylon one i had for my kneeboard. |

As long as its static and you like the feel of the handle, you're golden.
