GENERAL INFORMATION
j
j
WARNING
•
All
riders
and
wakeboarders/skiers/tu-
bers must wear a vest-type PFD (personal
floatation device).
And wear wetsuit bot-
tom or equivalent to protect against pos-
sible injury to body cavities from forced
injection of water.
Normal swimwear will
not provide adequate protection, possibly
leading to severe injury.
•
Avoid collisions with other boats, fixed ob-
jects or swimmers by staying out of con-
gested areas. Keep your watercraft at least
2.5 times the length of the tow rope away
from the shore, shallow water, obstacles,
etc. (at least 50 m (164 ft) if the tow rope is
20 m (66 ft) long).
•
To avoid serious injury, such as amputa-
tion to body parts, do not wrap the tow rope
around body parts.
•
Your watercraft is not designed to tow any
object that may float in the air while being
towed. Do not use your watercraft for any
such applications, or injuries may result.
•
Before towing, ensure that all members of the
team understand the meaning of every communi-
cation signal.
•
Observe the local rules and regulations in the area
where you are using the watercraft.
•
Tie the tow rope only to the ski tow eye under the
rear end of the seat. Be extra careful when towing;
towing can affect the steering of your watercraft
and create a hazardous situation.
A. Ski Tow Eye
Roles of the watercraft operator
The operator is responsible for the behaviour and
safety of the team.
•
Towing requires good operating skills. Do not at-
tempt to tow before you have become proficient at
controlling your watercraft.
•
Start off by idling ahead until the tow rope is
tight. When the wakeboarder/skier/tuber signals
he or she is ready, be sure the water around
the watercraft is clear and gradually increase
the speed to raise the wakeboarder/skier/tuber.
Maintain a speed that matches the skill of the
wakeboarder/skier/tuber.
Avoid rapid accelera-
tion and abrupt turns.
