FCT Extension Pole (w/ sail.) Whadaya think?

[Air206]

Does anyone have any experience with those crazy 10 ft extensions to the top of the FCT (with the Sail stabilizer built in)? I saw a picture with Shaun Murray, I think(?), riding behind one - seemed nuts! Is this a homemade job or an aftermarket setup? Thanks!

Called the Stiffy Tower. Never tried one but they look stupid.

Went to their website - seems crazy!! At least they have it demo'ed on a good wakeboard boat! Imagine that crazy thing, 1200 lbs of ballast and a Correct Craft Hull - Someone will herniate, hemorrhage or sink!

Wonder how much longer your line will need to be to get you the same spot behind the boat...

so, i don't understand? the sail is just to stabalize the extension? or is is a functioanal sail? can someone please explain this further?

[h2oskeefreek]

totally absurd

[h2oskeefreek]

it might be kind of cool if you could also use it as a sail.........nope, it's still retarded.

Lets say you do get it and don't think its stupid, theoretically, how would you get the rope attached???
