PM sent. Sounds awesome. Cant wait to see pics

Sorry for the delay guys, this company is driving me nuts. But here is a pic of my first prototype, but the second proto, coming soon is custom made based on this simple idea of using a special webbing strap and a strong alum. caribiner. It wraps around any tubing or the alpha z handle and you just snap the rope in. I can sell for under $20, and you only need one, since you can move from side to side.

Anyway, I should have them in soon.

They are finally in. Here is a picture of our first prototype on the alpha z.



We just got 20 in, I want to use to test, and I emailed all of you that used that contact form and sent me a message with instructions to get them. The ones I just got in, do not have 2 carabiners, they have one d-ring, and one carabiner, makes it easier to snap in rope. I got frank wolter, and myself up with this thing, it should hold up to 1600 lbs, and is all black, even the d-ring and carabiners are all powder coated black. It seems to work great on tube towers, or the alpha z. The only issue is on the alpha z it can get caught up with the bimini, but we wrapped the strap around 2x, so the carabiners were tighter to hte tower, and that seemed to solve the problem. I am only going to test out these 19 I have (1 for me) and then get feedback. If all works well, I will start selling them permanently. It is such a great help to tow from the side for beginners and kids.

Looks great. Cannot wait to get it a try!

I'm confused on how you use it. You connect the strap to a spot on the tower where it won't slide down anymore and then you have the rider start on the side? Do you reach over the side and hold the board for them, is that the idea?
Oh and

I got frank wolter, and myself up with this thing

Did I miss something???? Where's that thread????
