It's like a rope (similar to the ones they hold onto in wakeboarding/water skiing) that is attached to what looks like a generator that spins, winds the rope in fairly quickly and therefore gives the skier speed. Does anyone know the name of this and/or where we could buy one? <br /> Cheers, <br /> Ryan https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/14572/139035.page https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/14572/139035.page Sun, 17 Nov 2013 19:57:09 GMT Rope on a fast circle thing? ;) <br /> <br /> - Rope tow - <a href="http://skiing.about.com/od/beginningskiers/ss/chairlift_4.htm" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://skiing.about.com/od/beginningskiers/ss/chairlift_4.htm</a> <br /> - Ski rope <br /> - Ski rope lift <br /> <br /> You can make one :) <br /> <br /> <br /> <iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/g5is0Rvd2Hs"></iframe> https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/14572/139072.page https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/14572/139072.page Tue, 19 Nov 2013 13:05:15 GMT
