ABSTRACT:
A one-piece tow bridle for water skiing has a rigid, elongated metal handle part forming the base of an isosceles triangle, with an elongated metal member, e.g., a length of stainless steel cable, forked at a mid point to extend rearwardly in the legs of the triangle, each leg having an end swaged into an end of the handle part, with the whole assembly being encapsulated in a closed-cell foam rubber covering. Various embodiments of the swaging connection are presented, as is a kit for retrofitting an existing handle with the improved bridle.
