I would avoid any hooks, shackles etc, minimize the amount of metal **** that will be flying very fast if straps break.

If you do go for a proper kinetic recovery strap, decide on what weight you expect to actually using it for.

Honestly tho, a snow shovel, bag of sand and some of these would more realistically helpful.

*Furthermore, look into the legal aspects of helping someone you don't know. This is America 2022, you break anything they sue you for all your worth*

Yeah that is what my research is showing. Didn't know there were different kinds of rope/straps till I watched some videos, so recovery rope it is.

I was afraid of that too which is why I was thinking to limit it to 1 shackle maybe on my end or just all rope since rope wont hurt as much as a big shackle.

I forgot about those grip tracks. not as fun as yanking someone out of a spot but definitely better in 2022 so I don't get sued
