Largest Diameter Handle Grip???
 
We have finally gone through all our favorite Accurate Era Wakeboard Handles (all eight are finally destroyed - the plastic end pieces fall apart)

http://www.railheadboards.com/v/vspf...56840710-2.jpg

We liked this handle because it was the largest we could find (for big hands) and had just enough give to it where we didn't all end up with "tennis elbow". We have tried the CWB/Proline LG2 handles and they just don't hold up for us, the chamois clothe gets loose and slides around on the handle.

I don't follow the professionals, but does anyone know what Ruck is using for a handle now?

We also tried the new Ronix handles with all the little pebble like things on it and tears up my hands like no other and has ZERO give to it. Yes, I know, I have money counting hands...

i was at TSR the other day and the ronix frank i believe it was called, had a MASSIVE handle really big around.

Try the Ronix Totem and North. They are both large.

Is the Ronix Frank a solid sided or carbon handle?

We have to have a handle with soft sides! About two years ago one of riders snapped his forearm on a 720 attempt because he missed the handle pass and went through the handle. The boat kept on going and handle locked on to his forearm and applied a bending moment (twisting motion by having part of the handle push on the top of the arm and the other side push on the bottom) to both bones in his forearm and snapped them, compound fracture!

I'm actually surprised this handle design is still out there.

My new Ronix One handle just came in the mail yesterday. My boy was running around pretending he was wakeboarding and I couldn't get it from him! This may be the one that tore your hands up but I really like the grip. Plus you can unscrew the grip and switch it for another one if you want.

The Ronix Midas is the largest diameter I have seen and is a chamois feel.

What is the current largest handle out there? I did a search and this all that comes up.

I'm still Using The Same Ronix One Handle From Last Time It tore Up Your Hands. Still Has One Of The Largest Diameters. all The Detachable Grips For It Though Are Still Smaller In Diameter but Don't Rip Your Calluses Off

I absolutely love the double oval grip for the ronix one handle.
