[quote=splitlip If too loose it could slop off the edge of the spool when you first send it. Maybe catch a finger..[/QUOTE]

<DIV>When you release the bag, let go of the spool also. It will just dance around in front of you (+/- a couple inches) until the bag hits the surface. Then grab the spoolor it will slowly sink. A slow, neat wind on the way up does a great job of slowing the ascent rate. A little touchup of the last couple feet and it is ready for the next dive.</DIV>
