Bhai, I’ve seen enough mornings at the gym to know that a cheap rope can hold a man’s weight if you tie it right—but in the Ganga, even a good rope needs a proper throw bag and a buddy who’s done the swim before. Last season at Shivpuri, I watched a guy with all the fancy gear panic and flip, while the old guide with a patched-up vest and a hundred trips just floated like a chai cup on the tapri. Save your money on the flashy dry suit, spend it on a reliable PFD and a lesson from someone who’s been in the water when the current is angry.
