Title: what is the name of this?
Post by: WiseKran on June 23, 2006, 12:55:10 am

I was treying to figure out what they call these sort of devices

they pull a diver through water, used by scuba divers and such.

all i could find was a picture of this kids model.

but what is the real thing called?

These are fun. I have two (20 year old models or so). When used properly, you will -never- lose a splash fight. *evilgrin*

A diver tow? Wow. Nice tryeth

Anyway, I have one. But I'm usually much faster just swimming butterfly/freestyle on my own. And on one of those links there was something about 50% more time underwater...nah. But that's just me. Been doing laps since 7.

They seemed to work pretty good for Lara Croft in her second movie.  But I haven't had any experience other than that.

Do you think they'll ever make a movie out of PlaneShift?
