Not as strong as nylon, but if the polypro webbing hits its breaking strength, whatever part of your body it's attached to will no longer be attached to you. The polypro webbing will also allow you to shave a few grams off the weight of your kayak :-) Mike. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
