Airhead 1 Section Water Ski Tow Rope, 75 ft, 1500 lb Break Strength, AHSR-5
The Airhead AHSR-5 is a 1 section water ski tow rope built for skiers and boarders who want a simple, dependable line without extra handles or sections to manage. At 75 feet long, it gives riders room to work through wakes and turns, and it doubles as a wakeboarding and kneeboarding rope, so one line covers multiple watersports without swapping gear.
The handle is built around a 12 inch aluminum core for a rigid, stable grip that will not flex or twist under load. A performance grip wraps the core for comfort during long pulls, and molded finger protectors let riders hang on tight for extended periods without their grip sliding or fingers taking the brunt of the tension. The rope itself is a 16-strand construction rated for a 1500-pound break strength, giving it the strength margin expected of a dedicated ski line. It is finished in red for visibility on the water.
A rope keeper is included so the line can be coiled and stored without tangling between sessions, keeping the rope ready to grab and go. As a 1 section design, the AHSR-5 is best suited to riders who want one consistent length rather than the multi-section handle changes used for progression training.
