popof Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Spooky, I once had my thumb tangled in the rope and the boat simply in gear...will never forget that feeling of your thumb being stretched beyond your craziest imagination. I guess from reading this article that I got VERY lucky that day... I managed to reach the rope (the part between the boat and my finger) with my other hand and the boat crew saw something was wrong and stopped the boat. had lost my nail but the finger eventually recovered. I've been rope-o-phobiac ever since, when I'm waiting in between sets I always know exactly where every inch of rope is, and needless to say when I drive I always have that little thought before I tense the rope for my skiers...

boarditup Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 A loop in a rope is called a bight - pronounced bite. In the sea services we see gory videos of people who had a body part in a bight or in the line of fire when a rope parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
