Definatley a non-stretch rope, have a look at the accurate A-line or jacket series. Then a handle that is comfortable for you to hold and ride with, try the Proline LG handle; i have hear nothing but good things about that.

I'm looking for a new rope/handle setup now too(My old one's a piece of crap). Buywake.com is having a clearence sale on hardline ropes and handles. They're pretty good stuff, all no-stretch, I'm gonna order one soon. Its $99 for a spectra rope and a good handle. Thats definately the best deal I've foud so far.

I just bought an accurate rope with handle for 99.99 at my local shop. I like it and I cant wait to ride on the non stretch this summer. This past summer I was riding with stretch, and Ive heard non stretch allows your riding to improve a lot more because of the stability and more pop from building up tension while cutting into the wake. Just make sure its non stretch.
