Popis: We present measurements of the specific angular momentum $j_\star$ of 41 star-forming galaxies at $1.51$ in some cases) in low-mass haloes that decrease with increasing mass, suggesting a significant role of efficient angular momentum transport in these gas-rich systems, aided by the removal of low-$j_\star$ gas via feedback-driven outflows in low-mass galaxies.
