    Throwline - Any Reason To Get Something Other Than Dynaglide?

    Same, I got a shot back. How is that possible is behond me. The brim of my helmet took it but I can say that wasn't a gentle kiss. I put always the pouch on the under side for clearance with my holding hand, so I'd probably not get hit by the head if that brokes, but by the pole itself jumping...

    I use 2 popcorn buckets, one smaller (with the backup line) to fit in the main one. I didn't want to spend the money on that, but I'd like something more convenient. The biggest downside is if you give a little kick in it or if a limb touches it, the bucket comes alive and spits the throwline on...
