i know that i want a new handle because i dont have a 15 incher yet, so i saw a metamar for sale and was wondering if it was any good.

get a strait line bro..it beats the metamer...plus warrenty on the strait is longer..

Hardline DHS...most comfortable handle I've used.

Accurate or Hardline.

How about a link to the Hardline rope that's recommended. I'm lookin' for a new one soon.

Thanks Kristian but I was looking for a recommendation on a particular model. Any ideas?

<a href="http://www.wakeside.com/miva/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&amp;Category_Code=wakeboa rding_gear_wakeboard_lines/AFFIL/G2" target="_blank">Accurate Jacket or Straight Line Blazer</a>- only way to go IMO.

Hardline DVS or The One is what I usually recommend. The DVS is the Detachable Handle System that allows for changing the grips easily. You can wear the handle out and not have to buy another one. The One is a carbon handle. As for line, the T-Cor is great. It does not tangle easily and floats. <BR> <BR>Other options include the Fly High handles. They are hard rubber extrusions. The are the most durable on the market, but not soft. You can also get Tak-Line. It is limited stretch - about 2" at full length, so it is much easier on your shoulders when landing blind. Spectra has about 1/2" of stretch. For us older guys, every bit helps.

I bought the LF Watson Pro 01 at the Nor*Cal boat show. So far I really like it. It's a little thicker and has great grip, no complaints. <BR>Wake On! <BR><a href="http://www.WakeOn.com" target="_blank">www.WakeOn.com</a>

Scott: Oh right. I like the Diamond grip (I have a premmy, but I think this will be my next handle) the camo colour one. DHS is good because the reasons Karl said and you can choose what grip you want.
