After a long day of skiing holding on the poles and ropetow my hands will lock up. like when i close them, does this ever happen to you guys???
 
yeah my hands always feel wicked stiff after using tows all day. definitely great for the park though.
 
that happens just from the stress put on your forearms...can be scary as shit if you aren't used to it.
 
The same thing happens to your hands on handletows... I remember when I was just a youngun when I would be handletowing all day and my hands would just bind up.

It was wicked
 
I use a rope tow a lot and my forearms used to burn like hell but now they are used to it. Faster rope tows are better but what I do is I get on the rope from the left, so I hold the rope in front with my right hand and behind with my left, it works really well and I can rope tow all day.
 
yeah use both hands and switch it up everynow and then ride up switch sometimes itll help a lot
 
where the heck do you actually find a rope tow these days? In california, the only ropes I knew of that were still in operation were at dodge ridge, and im not sure, but they might have taken them out.

I have never even ridden a rope tow lol. I have been on a handle tow and a poma lift and a t-bar... those are the only surface lifts I have ever touched. lol.
 
waterville has a poma lift in the park, so dope. Quick rides up so you can just keep jumping allll day
 
Represent. They should build a rope tow on the deck of the pipe, wouldn't that be ill, even if it was impossible.
