Hi thought I'd share this really useful safety device. It's a flotation tube you can float on if you loose/have to ditch your gear. Packed up it's tiny and I have it attached through onto my harness strap it doesn't get in the way. . It uses a gas canister (replaceable ) to inflate the tube thankfully I haven't had to use it but it looks to be a good piece of safety for a small amount of$$: restube.net.au/

cheers

I dont know why people think they can sell this garbage to us honestly. Most of us are salty old men with sheds

Ill go one more and say that the stupid gas canister thing is a bloody hazard theres about 20 different iterations ive seen of safety sausages over the years and that one your trying to flog off for about a 900% markup is one of the worst.

Wondering how they would justify such a high price, when actual inflatable life jackets are cheaper than that simple sausage? I know which I'd rather have in an emergency! (Well actually, I reckon an impact vest is plenty of buoyancy, especially if wearing a wetsuit also.)
