more time in the air,longer cut for gettin drifty into the flats, don't have to listen to boat drivers sh#tty tunes, you can hold grabs way longer, more slack for landing blind...i think thats it, i'm gonna go add 5 more feet.

Of course too long and you start landing short casing wakes and the wake starts curling and getting soft and foamy.

If that happens, youre rope isnt too long, youre boat's too slow!

yeah but to be able to hang with the longer rope you have to ride faster.
