Old Rookie trying to picture how lines and handles differ
skibug replied to Nicad's topic in News & Other Stuff
go to Masterline USA and take a look. They have a wide range of handles and ropes. -
Replaced sender, then gauge, now sender is bad again, over the course of 2 seasons, on a 2015 Prostar. Getting it fixed again. Sort of frustrating.

A birdie told me he is back in the game.

@Horton Been using them for 10 years, no problems. Maybe I am just really lucky. I have come out of them numerous times when OTF and front binding releases. You have to set it up so that you have very little tension on it when your foot is in it. It is just enough to keep your foot in when you are in a situation that could lead to one in one out, Like your tail blowing our or you get pitched forward at the wake because you go flat early. I would argue that Manon's has to be flipped on and off with your fingers too, it looks pretty snug on her foot.

The Dakine straps are meant to be toe straps for a kite board or something of the like. In my searches for an image I found these actual heal straps, called Duo Heal Straps, that looks like something that would work too.
-
This is what I use. I use the middle screw that holds down the rubber toe strap and slip either the middle or forward hole in the nylon webbing of the Dakine strap over that screw (on both sides); then clamp/sandwich everything back together.

not odd and definitely safer than without rear heal strap

Been using this set up since 2007 or 2008....but I have Fluid Motion Evo series FB. I cannot count the number of times it has saved me from a one in one out situation, and probably certain injury, especially on tail blow outs. It has never been the culprit of injury (knock on wood) up to this point. I have almost always come out in an OTF situation and when I didn't it was of no consequence due to the inherent looseness of an RTP. I would not ski an RTP without some type of heal strap.

The KD is less work than the XTR....behind the boat

I use a kite board foot loop, they are made of bungy with a padded sleeve.

My father always said.."If your gonna be dumb, you'd better be tough!"

I have shredded my shin on my back leg when the ski raked across it in a fall. I needed to use a field wound blood clotting agent to get it to stop bleeding. I had to where a spray leg in order to ski, until it healed. There is a time a place for them.

both feet in but my RTP has a heal stap....so....sort a gotta.
-

wrong type of ski....wrong foot forward to be Adam Caldwell.

@Horton, you need a transmission in order for your truck to move, sort of a necessity....you don't need a $4000 touch screen to get ZO to run, your accessories to turn on and off, and you gauges to read out.
