We first saw the Bubba Rope Gator-Jaw Soft Shackle at the 2015 SEMA show in Las Vegas and it left an immediate impression. Sometimes a hook of a tow strap doesn’t quite fit right, which is where the self-tightening Gator-Jaw comes in. To use it, just feed the Gator-Jaw Shackle around or through whatever you’re connecting to, loop the open loop over the large knot and pull tight. It’s a small, simple item that could come in really handy when something goes wrong on the trail. You can order one directly from BubbaRope.com.
