Posted: Apr 12, 2007 4:44 pm Post subject: What is the best online dealer for lines and handles? |
|
|
| What is the best place to buy a wakeboard line and handle online? (ie. cheapest and reliable) I am thinking of an accurate A line. I am sick of my crappy old ski rope that I end up having to tie off to make it shorter. Any reccomendations of good websites would be helpful? Thanks |

Wakegiant.com typically has the best prices, although wakeside.com offers free shipping over $50. Depending on the handle you choose, it could be cheaper at either place. For example, the Proline LG is cheaper at wakegiant even with shipping, where as the premier is the same price at both, but wakeside's free shipping gives them the edge on that particular handle. Buywake.com doesn't offer free shipping until your purchase is ove $99, so you typically won't find the over all price cheaper there. _________________ "I'm not a professional wakeboarder, but I did stay in a Holiday Inn last night". |

100% spectra and less $$$ than any other rope/handle I've seen. You can usually find them on Ebay for even lower prices than the website. |

HHI Dave,
Agreed, especially on spectra lines. _________________ But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions -- it is by grace you have been saved.

| Thanks for all your replies. I have checked all the various websites and think I am going to go with the Accurate A line with a Premier handle from one of the above websites that offers free shipping. I probably won't buy it for a few days so if there is any reason I should stay away from these items, please let me know. Also....what do you think of the X line. I was always shortening my old ski rope for wakeboarding. I am riding off a Four Winns 200 Horizon with no tower. |

Bullet lines are good stuff. If you can't find prices in the same range as that at the other stores I wouldn't hesitate to use them. I've tried their lines and handles and the product is quality. _________________ You have just entered the twilight zone. |

I've got the Armor coated spectra line with an Eva handle from www.Bulletlines.com and I love it. I think I got both last year for $50 bucks. I know a few other people who also have the the Armor line and they think it's great. It never tangles, no rope burns, super slick through the water.

| I'd get the bullet line and handle if they sold one without the cheater for wrapped tricks. I want a more traditional handle. |

Dude get the wrap handle. You don't think you will use it, then when you have it, it's so much fun watching people try stuff with it.
Bullet Lines are nice. _________________

We don't have any coated ropes on special right now, but starting Monday our New Leather Grip Handles with Cheater and a 75' Dyneema Core mainline (3 x 5' takeoffs) are $84.99 including shipping. Nothing else comes close in value; super comfortable handle and 75' core mainline. Below are some pics... We have limited quantities at this price, so Email me if anybody wants one, and I'll send a link for it.
Thanks,
Ken Land
