Hah - I secretly 'stalk' you and your posts as we're both in Silicon Valley and I think our race times are surprisingly similar =)
I saw that you recently installed that small pool on your property, and seriously, I thought the main reason you installed it was exactly to DO tethered swimming!
This is the tether I got - it's great. The LONG tether is the key - it smooths things out a lot. (Ignore the parachute - the tether is wayyy too long to use with the parachute in a pool.)

Despite my thumbs up recommendation, I'm gonna say it now - I seriously doubt you'll use it more than 3 times. Because it's SO freaking boring! Even with waterproof headphones, it's still gonna be crazy boring. I'm using it because I have literally no other option and have upcoming races in 2-3 weeks, so it's time for me to HTFU and tolerate the boredom. But no way I'd do it at home, with the option of your regular pool in your case, or the Vasa in my case!
