every one says you either need a pylon or a tower but do you really need one to begin with?

no you dont need one to begin with...you wont get as much hang time and flips will be harder...the rope off the eye pulls you down faster and when the rope is up on a plyon or tower it doesnt try to pull you back down. does that make sense? And its rummered that its harder to get up without one but my uncle doesnt have one and its no harder than getting up on my boat..So the basic answer is no you dont need one to begin with at all

You need neither to begin with, even pros don't NEED a tower, it just helps a bit. You will definitely want pylon when you get to doing some air tricks.

you will want a tower thought pylons tilt the boat when you cut out, making it harder to drive a tower is way more stable so get one if you can

| wouldn't a tower tilt the boat just as much as a pylon, they both have a high pivot point.[/quote] |
