Default What's the trick to the ski tow eye
Hello I have a 2008 SX20 and I cannot figure out how to pull out the pop up-ski tow. It just stays in one position.
Any help

    Mikey...you are sooooo intuitive! lol

    On my 2007 SX-18 you push on the center piece and it pops out, push on it again it goes back in. It may need a shot of lubricant.

    I have the same issue. Mine has been used three times to pull a 2-person tube with kids on it and it has bent and will not go in or out any more. It is also tearing my lifetime guaranteed tow rope. Poor design in my opinion with the sharp edges on the hook.

    Anyone know where and what to replace it with?
