A towline quick-release waistbelt with 10 metres of floating rope, which can be adapted to your preferred tow system. Each of the components; the rope, shock absorber and clip can be re-tied to the strong point as you choose and made ready to be deployed left or right handed. Just clip on and paddle away, the velcro closure lets the line pay out easily. The clamshell pocket fits snug to your waist out of the way but also opens wide, holding its shape to make repacking easy.
