Each BaxGear throw bag is individually handmade in Victoria, Australia, with a unique and one-off fabric print/colour combination.

These River Rescue Throw Rope in 20m length gives ample length to reach opposing river banks, or allows for a quick recoil and throw for missed targets. With a quick release waist buckle, this rescue bag is designed to be worn around the waist and easy and quick to deploy when required.

BaxGear throw bags are a multi purpose, river rescue throw rope during the day and also make an excellent extended drying line to hang wet gear, or to string up a tarp back at river camp.

Pack Raft Australia recommends paddlers familiarise and train in the proper use of river rescue throw ropes and associated river rescue techniques. Some river rescue scenarios do not require deploying a river rescue throw rope. Rescuer judgement and evaluation of each individual situation should be used. Throw bags and water rescue ropes are not designed and/or intended to be used in climbing or vertical rescue. The Minimum Breaking Strength (MBS) ratings should be used as a guide only. Inspection of river rescue ropes and knots should be completed periodically and worn or deformed ropes replaced when required.
