Throw line.

[Tom D]

Left a cambuum saver up a nightmare Ivy covered tree yesterday with throwline in for reinstalation this morning. It broke.

 

I have always used bog standard line and although I find it works ok I do occasionaly get breakages, I was wondering if it is worth paying four times as much for lines like "zingit".

short answer, yes!

yep-it throws way better mate and will not snap. or try the dyneema lines available from a kite store, virtually exactly the same thing.

i just used the LIROS throwline until it broke used the zingit at work the other day and no complaints, i will be ordering one for myself come payday:thumbup:

[Steve Bullman]

liros is my favourite so far. did you have the white stuff? must have been giving it some for it to break!

[DrewB]

who makes the liros stuff?

[Steve Bullman]

hmmm not sure. nod and honeys sell it, they'd be the ones to ask

[benwrdn]

are you on about the Liros Proline? thats the white one i think. i had the standard liros one (yellow) how does the Proline compare to zingit?

[Steve Bullman]

i prefer it personally. never tangles. i found the zing it kinked a little....but in all fairness, when i had zing it that was pre-falteimer cube days, and it used to get wrapped round a stick. i should probably give it another go some time.
