Good anchor once you get it set up for your needs. It can damage your board pad if you’re not careful how you store it on the board while on the water. The bag is not enough protection, but it does the job and I’m glad to have it ready to drop. Oh, also, the carabiner isn’t strong enough to remain clamped closed and it’s too easy for it to stick open. I’d recommend updating that part to something more sturdy.
