🏊 Hotspear Swim Buoy Dry Bag: A Must-Have Tow Float for Open Water Swimmers and Triathletes Review

I like that this dry bag is nice and bright which makes it easy to see. When you need it, it works as a good lifesaver. I swam with the line around my waist, then the buoy floats past my feet/shins, which in itself takes some getting used to as I try not to kick them while swimming. Most importantly, it is safe gear and I feel safe having it with me on long rides. There is also an internal protective pocket for car keys which is a very handy part of this buoy.

Loved this swim set! I used to have a windowless camera that did a good job of keeping me dry, but this camera with a selfie window is pretty useful. I was surprised because now I can take good pictures while swimming in the sea and I didn't expect the pictures to be so good with the double transparent cover on the bag's window.

I weigh about 280 pounds and swim several hundred meters in a deep lake several times a week – it has lasted two summers so far! Now I can do…

I put the phone and other items in a waterproof case and put the package in a dry bag. I didn't think it would be completely dry for my phone. It was actually dry, but the waterproof case made it easy to take out things that stayed dry. The bag also provided some security in the ocean. No lifeline, but you can rest assured that you'll have a little…

I used to swim with my steel car keys but these days my car keys are electronic and I don't feel comfortable leaving my keys on the beach so I bought This. I've used it three times in the sea and still haven't had any leaks. Just in case, I put my phone, keys, etc. in a zippered pocket. Although I can't see myself in the ocean, I find it much easier to spot other ocean swimmers with buoys than those without buoys. The buoy is attached to a strap that you wear around your waist and can sometimes
