The Lifesling (MOB retrieval system) is one of those pieces of gear that we certainly hope we never have to use, but if we do, it has to work perfectly . . . and instantly.

Listen in for how to check yours, and if you discover that it needs to be repacked, get the directions here — you’ll find the link to the owner’s manual that explains it, but also a photo series of me re-packing ours. Yeah, it turned out that ours was a tangled mess.
