Keeping my ropes safe?!

OP,
The best thing to do is let the tuber hold the rope and let it out as the boat slowly gains distance from the tuber. If they fall off then its the boat pilots driving skills always keep moving forward.

I am in Bedford, TX as well I can give you a few tips or come by and visit or help you with your next trip!

PM your info/number be glad to lend a hand.

This is what we do, wife holds it and let's it out slowly as I pull forward slowly in the boat. Daughters hands don't go near the rope :)
