Default Skiing with Pro Pole
Just curious, saw a post somewhere else where the guy said he couldn't pull skiers with a Pro Pole attached. Is this true? Would it damage a pro pole if you swung a skier around pretty hard and put pressure on the pro pole?

Thanks.

Tie the ski rope to the power pole, film the results and post the video on YouTube. Good luck

I ran back to a weigh in with my power pole half way down, had a loose ground wire. The spike had a serious bow in it and was throwing a w wake. Those power poles are tough!
