Tow loops and straps

[pyro723]

I see that we need tow loops and straps to ride. Can someone post pics so everyone knows what this is?

a loop of rope tied in the bow eye and stern eye is sufficient.

makes hooking a tow rope much quicker & safer if you need a tow.

You can make it out of anything laying around. I used old lifevest strap and burned the ends of the knot.

The tow rope should go around your waist and be able to do a quick release in the rough surf.

i thought the same thing. That would surely break an arm off. I am wondering where to get some elastic to make a limiting rope. I am off to the fabric store to see. I don't have mine on yet (ski is loaded already) but i have a bunch of rope from lowes i will use to make a tow rope and bow/stern loops once i can take my shirt off to work on my ski.

get the elastic rope at any boat store or ace hardware...you could also use a bungee cord if you put different fasteners on it..

Nice!
I don't have any on my Sxi pro, but the factory locks work just fine.
