Synthetic rope?
Yep
You may be correct. The ad is a bit vague when it says the inside track club people get the first dibs on the merchandise on Mon-Thur and everyone else gets it on Fri-Sun. But when looking at the ad, it just shows the price for inside track club members.
Only until Friday. Then the sale is open to everybody.
Yes, but the wire rope version is also on sale too.
If it is, it should be at least like $100 less. I have seen that for like $399 not that long ago. But isn't synthetic rope much better and safer? I remember many years ago when I was in my teens pulling a dune bike with a small winch onto a trailer and the ''rope" broke. Part of it wacked against my head (maybe why I am screwed up today). But when synthetic rope began to be used, I was happier than ever.
You are correct. Synthetic is safer with less gear involved. Wire ones can be relatively safe if you throw a good moving blanket or something fabric of equal weight over the line at about the half way point. The thought process being that the energy from a broken cable will be transferred into the blanket and not someone’s head. Snapped cables are super scary. Been there, done that, not going back.
