I bought a 9/16" stable braid for a smoking deal locally. I posted about it somewhere in this thread I think?

I've run 5/8ths on a porty a ton and it seems fine. My new 9/16th line runs fine on the port too? I better try out a 1/2" just to see the difference now.

$130 was a deal. I went in there today for some new suspenders(yee haw!) and the same rope now in a bag was $190.

I was wondering if anyone was going to bring that line up Eric. I'm considering trying some out. What can I say...........I'm cheap!

What are all of y'alls thoughts. Probably ordering a couple of rigging lines. Time to replace the 1/2" three strand that I use for light duty natural crotch rigging and also looking to replace some larger false crotch ropes. I've had a 1/2" and 5/8"s Samson stable braids in the past. What's...
