Aviva's reversed box "X" stitching on all handles and connection points puts the stitching on the underside of the towable's cover, not against your skin.

Though Aviva's NRZ towable smooth skin won't cut or abrade your skin, it is not likely to get cut itself. Each one comes with a bright orange 840 denier nylon cover that is dependable and highly visible as you zoom in and out of the wake. Underneath this protective skin is a durable 30 gauge PVC bladder with a reinforced connection point that is easy to use and connects quickly to standard water recreation tow ropes.
