Professional Large Waist Rescue Throwbag – Built for Swiftwater Operations

Engineered for operational reliability in swiftwater rescue scenarios, this Large Waist Rescue Throwbag is designed to hold up to 20 metres of 9.1 mm or 10 mm high-tensile floating rope. Its 38 mm wide waist belt offers a comfortable and secure fit without causing pressure points, even when worn over extended periods during missions.

A photoluminescent glow strip around the base significantly improves visibility in low-light and night operations. After brief exposure to light, the strip emits a long-lasting glow to help rescuers and teammates locate the bag in darkness. Combined with highly reflective tape, this bag ensures optimal visibility in demanding conditions.

The mesh drainage panel facilitates rapid water release, allowing the rope to dry quickly and reducing retained weight. Built-in flotation keeps the bag buoyant on the water’s surface, while the design allows for immediate second throws — simply scoop water into the bag's base to add throwing weight without repacking.
