I have the ARB weekender recovery kit. Has served me well. Im sure there may be better options out there depending on your intended use

I’ve got the Go rhino soft shackles, kinetic rope and tow strap and they have been great

Project Farm on utube has a great torture test on kinetic ropes.

I have Rhino tie down straps and they have worked well. I've been checking out their kinetic ropes last night.

I’ve had them 1 winter and worked well the one time I needed to assist some one.

I used ARB products for years, worked great while off-roading in my Jeep.

I’m a big fan of bubba rope. Didn’t even know this company existed, until I attended an off road recovery class.

I would keep to soft shackles for safety. No reason to use old school shackles these days.

Their mother company makes rigging supplies for industrial and military use. The U.S. Coast Guard uses their gear for towing duty. Good reputation in the industry.

Me too. They work fine.

Their products are pretty good no complaints yet

Me too. They work fine.

Agreed

I don’t think you can go wrong with any of the options. I like Bubba Rope, because they are manufactured in the USA. Rhino is a great US family owned company, but their gear is made overseas. Doesn’t mean it’s not great stuff.

I just prefer, and am willing to pay a little extra, for US manufacturing. I know not everyone feels the same way.

Good on you, carrying recovery gear. So many do not. I was at Port Aransas Beach just a couple weeks back. A dually Ford was stuck. He had no recovery gear. It took 3 pulls to get him on firmer sand. I had to talk him into airing down, so he wouldn’t get stuck again.

I have a local friend that works for a company that builds cables and straps for rigging. They arent kinetic straps, but they have a high break strength. I don't have any of his stuff as I had already bought the ARB kit before I knew he sold them.

Probably would make great tow straps.

I don't have any kinetic ropes/soft shackles right now (although I have the Rhino USA ones saved to buy on Amazon later).
The Rhino USA recovery straps, tree straps, and snatch block have all been very good to me when I had them in the past. Only gave them to a buddy when I was without a truck for a period before getting my Ram.
Definitely recommend them for quality budget gear.
