Baller MattP Posted April 23, 2012 Baller Share Posted April 23, 2012 How do you get that handle through the loop on the end of the rope? Looks like they could be a pain at tournaments... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller_ DW Posted April 23, 2012 Baller_ Share Posted April 23, 2012 Thanks for the review, very valuable, good stuff. Cool concept on the rope. Any thoughts on how well this will work as the rope ages do you think it will still be easy to open the loop next year? Is there a way to adjust the length if out of tolerance? Thanks.

Baller ScarletArrow Posted April 23, 2012 Baller Share Posted April 23, 2012 @MattP you have to put the handle on "backwards" then fold the knot over - i.e. put the handle loop through the rope loop, then back through the handle loop. We have several guys around here who use them and it caught me by surprise in a tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck_Dickey Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Actually, the US Gear rope has a larger loop at the end where you attach the handle so it makes it easier to attach any handle. The handle has a large loop as well, so it makes it easy to attach to any brand rope. They work great seperately and a terrific used together.

Chuck_Dickey Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 The US Gear handle rubber is as grippy as any on the market, is long lasting and the shape of the handle is anti-roll which is very easy on the wrists and forearms. No knobs at the ends to pinch your fingers. I buy the Rathburn Spectra model, 12" Pro comp radius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller JC McCavit Posted April 26, 2012 Baller Share Posted April 26, 2012 Where can you order the rope? It is not on their website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller skibug Posted April 26, 2012 Baller Share Posted April 26, 2012 @bananaron, the Rathbun is made with spectra rope versus regular nylon rope; plus it comes with a ski guard down the main section of the handle rope. I think it is well worth it, I have one and I love it. @JC McCavit, it is sort of hard to find; http://www.usgearonline.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PLST&Store_Code=USGEAR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
