How strong is ski rope?
Strength and Durability: Ski ropes offer excellent tensile strength and durability, making them suitable for various applications. They can withstand heavy loads and resist abrasion, making them reliable for tasks that require robust and long-lasting ropes. Ski ropes are meant to have at least a minimal amount of stretch. This helps to reduce the shock applied to the rider’s arms when making tight turns and transitioning from carving left to right, and vice versa.NOTE: In skiing, we need the ski rope to have some elongation. The older the rope the less elongation that the rope will have and the less that the breaking load will become (depends on how much its skied on and storage). Therefore, it is also recommended that you replace your ski rope once a year.
