Hi All,

Was in the Dominican Republic last week, and whilst avoiding the tail end of Hurrican Ike or Hurricane someone or other, sat down and watched a bit of tele and drank the contents of the fridge. ( as you do ) Anyway one of the advert's was for a product called SHAMWOW, it's a bit like shammy leather but its not

This stuff sucks up water better than two hookers on a job and finish, and i was thinking it could be good cut into small patches and used for drying flies

I have been to the web site but can not get a reply from them. so i was wondering if any of our U.S.A members can get hold of it and how much the postage would be, i know the product is about £10ish for a load of the stuff,and if i can get hold of it,and it work's i could cut it into reasonable size patches and post it out to anyone who want's to try it.

If you want to see what i am talking about google it hear.......

shamwow.com

Just a thought all the best T.K........

If you google shamwow.com you also get quite a few reviews; very 'mixed' to say the least. That said, the product is a knock off of a camping pack towel made by the makers of the Therm-a-rest pack mattresses.

A lot of folks who swim (pools) use this (type of) product for a quick dry off. Remember the swimming events at the last Olympics? All the swimmers/divers were using these when they got out of the pool.

Best of all, they're 'cheap as chips' to buy. Check out a store that sells camping gear and save yourself a lot of grief.
