    Default kneeboad off of tower

    No to much going on in the kneeboard/waterski section so I thought i would post it here.

    Do you think it will be ok to kneeboard off of the tower? it should be about the same amount of weight to pull as a wake board. I just don't want to damage it.

    Thanks,

    I don't think it will be any problem for the tower, but the rope may be too high and at too much of an angle for the knee boarder.

    Use the same pylon you would for a skier.

    Your tower will be fine. It'll help your kneeboarder get more air! haha.

    I always get towed from the tower when I knee board. Seems like knee boarding is easier on the tower than when I cut hard wakeboarding.
    Awesome video!
