The Big Pull

[Baddog]

You had all the ropes on the pylon? Why not spread some of them to the rear bar and D hooks?

Why doubles? How come no one single skied?

and speed. you can stay up at a fairly slow speed on 2, but not 1.

and with a mix, the singles would be sinking or the doubles would be flying!

Thats what I was thinkin!!!! Well this solves the debate as to wether the ski pylon bracket can support a stripper pole!!!!

I've done a foursome all deepwater slalom starts behind an old Southwind, also a double barefooting, then a five person where I was the only one on a slalom, (double boot as well)

Were a bunch of show skiers and use leaders to hook the ropes together. Its more habit than function and also faster to use the pylon. Also with the 17 people and the 2 boat pull the rope to the second boat is also on the pylon so it helps equilize the pull on the pylon for starting out. The pylon is also the strongest attachment point on a DD boat.

We tried IIRC 13 wakeboarders only 7 got up.

Mdude,

You have the Illusion tower, right? Is it strong enough to pull 7+ boarders at once? I've been worried about damage when pulling 2 boarders.
