2027 Straightline Barefoot Thermal Line | The Top Of The Barefoot Range
The Thermal Line is the most expensive rope in Straightline's barefoot range, and the only one with a smooth coated jacket over the core rather than a bare braid. Coating a barefoot line does two things a raw braid can't: it stops the rope soaking up water and gaining weight through a session, and it takes the abrasion instead of the load-bearing fibres underneath.
Key Technical Features
Coated Outer Jacket: A smooth sheath over the core — less water pickup, less drag through the water, and the chafe happens to the jacket rather than the rope.
Barefoot Length and Configuration: Built as a barefoot mainline, to pair with any Straightline barefoot bar or toe handle.
Teal Colourway: High visibility in the water — which matters more than it sounds when there's a rope loose behind the boat.
Why You'll Love It
Committed barefooters. At $179.95 this is three and a half times the Static Line, and if you foot a few times a summer you will never feel the difference. If you're footing every weekend and you've noticed your line getting heavy and furry by February, this is the rope that fixes it.
Sold as a line only.

About Straightline
Straightline has been building watersports ropes and handles since 1993, and in Australia the name is close to shorthand for the category — if there is a ski or wakeboard rope in the boat, there is a fair chance it says Straightline on it. The line covers slalom, wakeboard, wakesurf, kneeboard, barefoot and tube, from a $30 mainline through to tournament packages.
What the brand is actually known for is the unglamorous engineering: grip shapes that suit how hands give out, low-stretch cores that put the boat's pull where you asked for it, and floats and endcaps that still work after three summers. The Australian arm operates out of Echuca, Victoria, alongside sister brand Raptor, and supplies more than fifty specialist dealers nationwide. Shop the Straightline range now at Welcome Boardstore.
