How Would You HANDLE This?
I seem to have gone thru alot of handles. I've tried different types. They always rip. One handle was justified ripped on my mini x while playing in the surf. The rest (6 total) just failed.
My kayaks are stored inside. How I use the handles: I roll the kayak on it's side away from me, grab the handle on the opposite side and flip up the kayak so the kayak is resting on top of my knees. I grab the bottom edge and raise the kayak onto my shoulder to lift it up onto the rack. They get used very little compaired to the diehard fishermen on here. So anyway the handles don't go thru any heavy workouts. IMO they are poorly designed. All the pressure is transfered to one edge causing them to rip as in the pictures.
Anyway, I'll find the right handle one day.
