I always regear whatever winch I have for snowboarding in the winter. It seems like at full throttle I'm probably pulling people at about 35.

Does any one else do this? How fast is too fast for the snowboard?

I winch on snow some, mostly rails with no place to get natural speed. I just remove the ski handle and hold onto the rope. Its more dangerous and not need on snow. My girlfriend got hit by the handle driving my winch this summer, she is a trooper, but wasn't too pumped on it.

I don't regear, don't need too much speed to get ontop of the rails. We use sleds to tow in for anything high speed.

Is there is a too fast?.. when you feel like your speed is right drop the rope.
