i just got my third straightline rope today


the first one i got broke the very first time using it ever, we took that one back, and got another one, then that one breaks after 30 mins of riding. Confused


none of us are overwieght or anything we all weigh less than 150 pounds


i hope this rope doesnt break so soon, would could have just got a bad batch or something

I bought a nylon accurate a couple years ago for cheap, still hasn't failed me. None stretch ropes aren't as essential to wakeskating as they are to wakeboarding, especially if your doing tricks in the flats, right?

i just got a cheap straight line rope for 80 bucks and i love it, i have had many accurate ropes too (my family has a problem with running over ropes...) the most recent accurate line i had was the zebra jacket, it tangle way to much, i use to have an a-line and thats the way to go! but for the money the straight line is just fine!

im going out tomorrow with the new one so we'll see if it gets through a day of riding
