The other bags that I/my dad have are the NRS compact 70' rope and the h2o Rescue Gear Big Shot and Sidearm. I really like the Weasel because of the extra material at the top, making it really easy to get a good grip on it and throw it, and could see it being easier to use when trying to throw from a less stable area (although standing on an unstable area isn't a good idea). I remember standing on a rock in the middle of a class II+ rapid (Big Rocks on the Noli) trying to throw a 75' spectra NRS rope, and could barely get it to go anywhere, but feel like I could easily make the throw with this rope, because of the ease of throwing. If the bag was a bit more tapered towards the end (longer and narrower like the Sidearm), and the available belt was better designed (I like my Sidearm because you buckle the belt on, with the rope clipped on via a QR buckle). The rope itself feels like it's almost hollow on the inside, but it's rated to about 1888 lbs of force, which is stronger than my 5/16" Grabline in...
