Host Lizzy Scully and guest Tony Miely test and review lightweight throw bags for packrafting and kayaking, examining deployment, rope type, mouth openness, waist‑pack options, weight, and re‑stowing ease.
They compare models from ultralight to guide‑grade, discuss pros and cons and price points, and recommend which bags work best for different paddling situations (guiding versus personal).
