I created a special rig for my daughter as she's learning, it works on the skate too, in addition I set the rail at water level to slide start her with ease, I taught her how to drive the winch since she's my only reliable rider
That is awesome to see that she is shredding, you should definitely try to get her on the skate some more.
But in my opinion I would never put a six year old in charge of a winch. It looks great when everything goes well, but there are too many things that could go wrong that she would have no idea how to handle and could end up hurt. Sorry just my two cents, I felt uncomfortable just watching the video. That looks like a sweet spot though, and she definitely looks like she is loving the water!
I understand your perspective, I wouldn't do it if I was uncomfortable with any thing. she's been around winching for years and for these pulls I just cruised, no tricks, plus I am very well trained to hold the handle no matter how hard I crash. that is my personal and most trusted winch, I've put it thru hell and back to know that stuff wont go wrong _________________ ☆PHOENIX WINCH☆ FACEBOOK YOUTUBE

What Frye said...........
Takes two seconds to get your hand stuck somewhere.... Not trying to tell you how to raise your kid......... Please be smart though. Frye and I have been in the company of very responsible adults who were sober that had a winch mishap..... Be safe.
Also, Stoke that she is winching..... thats rad. _________________
