I occasionally use a paddle leash when I touring about because it is nice to drop the paddle in the water and take a picture, raft up, get my sprayskirt on or whatever. Seems to me that they are also handy for assisted rescues -- giving and receiving. Of course I could just jam the paddle under my deckcords, but whenever I do that it seems I spend in inordinate amount of time making it stay, and it usually just falls out anyway. Here's a question: wouldn't it be kind of difficult to get tangled up in a leash while rolling? The leashes I've seen seem far short to do this. I might be completely wrong. Someone set me straight. -Patrick *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************Received on Tue Mar 24 1998 - 12:56:06 PST
