Comments about NRS Pro Compact Rescue Throw Bag:
This is my go to rope when things are going sideways fast. I love the way this thing unspools so easily. I keep mine between my knees in my boat so it is quickly accessible.

Comments about NRS Pro Compact Rescue Throw Bag:
Every class 5 paddler should carry this bag or an equivalent while on the river. Small and compact enough to fit in the stern of any creekboat and lightweight enough even when wet that you won't notice the extra weight. Who cares really about the weight because when the excrement hits the fan your buddies count on you to carry the proper safety gear. When carried in conjunction with the Astral Buoyancy Spectra Throw Bag you have the coverage you'll need to rope your buddy out of that nasty siphon!
Service and delivery comments:
Super Speedy!

Q:
How does dyneema rope compare with polypro rope?Asked on 2/28/2013 by Kathy2 answers
A:
Both float, but Dyneema is much stronger. Take a look at this article for the details - http://www.nrsweb.com/tech_talk/Know_The_Ropes.asp - The core of Dyneema is made of the Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene. It has an outer sheath of polypro for grip and flotation.Answered on 2/28/2013 by Clyde from NRS

Q:
Since this Throw Bag is a Compact version, will the "Wild Water Supply Snag Plate" work with it.Asked on 10/10/2012 by A fan of NRS products... from Cape Cod1 answer
A:
The Snag Plate is 4 1/4" in diameter and so is the Throw Bag. It'll be a snug fit but should work.Answered on 10/10/2012 by Clyde from NRS

Q:
Will this fit into my Astral Aquavest in the throw pocket? What are the dimensions, it's hard to gauge as I have nothing to compare it with.Asked on 9/7/2012 by Trip from Blacksburg, VA4 answers

A:
No, it's too large to fit inside a pocket. It's roughly the size of a
water bottle.Answered on 9/7/2012 by AnonymousVERIFIED BUYER
A:
I don't think it will. I wear the Astral Green jacket so it is not a perfect comparison but it would not fit in my jacket. The wedge throw bag might fit but even it will make the jacket fell somewhat bulky. I wear the guardian waist throw bag in-stead of putting a throwbag in my pfd. Hope that helps.VERIFIED BUYER
A:
I think overheard of it being done. Maybe have to park the car on ir overnight shorten the rope? I also have the Salamander. Think it is smaller and was less expensive. I can measure the 2 when I get home. ****@***.***
