we could probably reference this thread whenever we're doing a roll call and safety briefing for future runs, just so ppl could keep refreshed on the techniques.

I am supposed to be getting my 10,000lbs rated tow hooks in a week so recovery will be so much easier.
Who selling recovery straps in TT?
