  • I’m glad to hear your sourcing the WWTC bags, didn’t realize that. Definitely plan on picking one of them up this year. Thanks for helping to make them available!
  • Next video on type of rope? and how to recognise them? I also like the quote "a lenght that you can precisely trow" but what do you think of the idea of having more rope in the bag? I mean i can trow at 60ft but i'll take a 70 or 75ft bag because if i miss there this 10-15ft of that can potentialy help the swimer. For exemple, the bag can almost stall in place will the extra lenght is pull down the stream, giving a swimmer I missed an extra seconde to reach the bag. What you think?

    So my question is and maybe you covered it, are you throwing the bags wet or dry? Huge difference in my opinion…oh yes and nice throws!
