He’s a legend. A living one at that… Here’s what he says:

"I'm all about gear that makes life on the water better, and RopePal is one of those game-changers,"

"It’s simple, smart, and super convenient for the rider.  It keeps the good times flowing."

KEEP THE VIBE ALIVE

Using traditional ropes and handles are a pain. It takes time to circle a rider, throw the rope out and get them positioned— not to mention tangled ropes, missed connections, Driver / Rider mood changes, etc.

SAFETY

Care about keeping your riders safe? We do! When a rope gets slack and a rider falls, there is an opportunity for the rider to be caught up in the rope and become injured, sometimes quite severely. RopePal is a safer way to wakesurf by keeping the surf rope ahead of the rider. RopePal also keeps the surf rope out of the propeller!
