Has anyone used this floatline bungee? If you have can you comment on the quality of the ends(terminal gear quality and strength)
"Constructed with a 3/8” closed cell neoprene internal core encapsulated in a high tensile, stretchable polyester over-braid that has a break strength of over 1800 lbs"
I cant imagine that the polyester outer cover can stretch very much but intrigued... Very curious as 100ft of this is not crazy at about $130.

I have not used it but I know a couple Cali guys have them. Hopefully they will see this and chime in.

they are good float lines , they are just stiff enuff that they do not tangle or knot up in use but are still very flexible . they get their stretch from the outer jacket constricting around the neoprene core , they are a good choice for use around reefs ,and structure where a traditional bungie would get destroyed.. it is a cheaper alternative to the riffe spectra floatline Accessories - Float Systems
