Rickter Rear Tie Down

[mityike]

What are you guys using to tie down the back of a Rickter Edge? The HSI bracket isn’t wide enough to fit on the bracket on my Edge. Thx.

A strap around the reduction nozzle

No issues with it bouncing around on a trailer? I was thinking of using a tie down strap ring in the same location where the HSI bracket was to go. I guess as long as the tray area is strapped down, this connection is just to keep it from sliding forward or back.

I wouldn't gronk down on it too much, as its putting the force on the pump inserts. Best thing to do it a strap around the whole rear of the ski.

The Thrust Bracket even states "Not for tying down the rear of the ski". I do a strap over the rails, or across the rear diagonally dropping below the bondline depending on the tie down situation. (Toy Hauler or Trailer)

Thx. Mainly for use on a hitch hauler. Just to keep it from sliding forward. The strap around should take all the weight.
