Designed by Jeff Allen the ThrowTow rescue system can be used as a towing line/throw line when performing different rescues, difficult landings, self rescues, drogue and much more. The new MARK III version of the TT rescue system features an extremely strong, lightweight and reliable floating bag with a strong neon-yellow Cordura® bag with a 50+ UV protection factor. The load between the guide/rescuer and rescued paddler/kayak or let’s say between the two carabiners on either end of the 40 to 60 feet line goes directly over the internally spliced orange floating line and not anymore on a bulkier and heavier internal and external sewed webbing. This makes the TT lighter, stronger and more reliable. If by any chance you have to substitute the floating line this can be done just undoing the figure of 8 knot inside the bag. It is strongly advised that you attend a specific Safety & Rescue courses to learn how to use the TT rescue system effectively. Comes with a standard 12m floating line but can be set up to 18m. The belt of the TT system is designed so that the anchor point of the bag can swivel around the paddler’s waist onto the belt bridle. This allows the tow line to run freely when changing direction and also allows you to carry the bag to the front of you, sitting in the kayak, when you expect to need it in the throw function whilst negotiating rock gardens.
