Offset wake surf tow system and method

Abstract

An offset wake surf tow system designed to enhance the experience of wakesurfing behind watercraft. It consists of ropes and hardware assembled into attachment, adjustment, and grasping sections. The tow system is designed to stay in the water while riders are surfing and attaches to the watercraft, offset to the side of the rider, so that the rider may elect to grasp or drop the tow system multiple times without interference or entanglement. The offset and vertical attachment of the tow system, length adjustment, and interaction with the watercraft wake combine to achieve the desired lateral and vertical positioning of the system to remain close enough for the rider to reach, and, out of the rider's way when not in use. The tow system also provides a line to grasp for the surfer to start from still in the water and, due to the offset attachment, assists with rider pick-up.
