Do you throw them a line or not?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>While a good throw is the most efficient way to solve the problem, a bad throw can add more risk to the situation if the paddler get tangled in the rope. I\u2019m a huge fan of getting roped out and avoid swimming but it\u2019s definitely a tricky one. The safety person has to do a good throw and the paddler needs to be able to catch the rope and keep his balanced while getting\u00a0pulled out.
