Replying to How to make your own portable rope tow.

I've been wanting to do this forever and am finally going to do it this week.

It took me forever to find a set of plans or anything other then someone just tying a rope around their car tire with a pulley on the other side.

I'm going to be doing this same setup using a 5hp lawnmower engine.

I know this might interest some of the more technical side of NS. Also didn't know where to post, i thought i'd get the most legit responses here.



What i'm going to when it snows, go hike up by Red Lakes (tahoe) and set up 2-3 powder jumps and a couple rails with my friends and we're going to lap them. I'm so stoked. Sooooo stoked.
