A combination of 24 double braid polyester cover and Zylon fiber core makes for the highest performance line for the highest levels of pro racing.

Use Progen PBO line for your jib halyard or main halyard. We do not strip the cover off this line because PBO is very sensitive to UV radiation and will degrade in visible light. PBO also has a tendency to chafe on itself and lose a significant portion of it's breaking strength over time.
