Re: Found Something Riffe may not be happy about... (wakeboarders?)
It it durable though? the core looks like it would compress and the covering looks like it would fray

Re: Found Something Riffe may not be happy about... (wakeboarders?)
Let me get this straight. You are trying to spend over a 100 bucks on a wake-boarding line to use as a float line??? Quit trying to over think an alternative, just buy a mako or neptonics float line and be done with it. Also no need to waste money on a brand just to look cool

theoretically you could also just reverse it because its the end near the gun that compresses, and get more life out of it also even with the neoprene compressed it still floats , just not as buoyant when it wears out you just recycle the tuna clip and swivel to next line |

Re: Found Something Riffe may not be happy about... (wakeboarders?)
you won't want to use that wakeboarding rope..........
as for most tournament-quality skiing ropes, those "takeoff" sections are not removable....... you just double-loop the section you want to ski on at the ski pole and you are able to select the length distance you want to ride on...... the main difference between regular tournament slalom ropes, and wkaeboard ropes is the wakeboard ropes are made with line that has little to no stretch. the key to wakeboarding is non-stretch line...... slalom ropes can have a bit more stretch.... so, finding spectra, or similar line in bulk would be a better choice...... --Sherpa.
