So I think it is time to change the lines out on a couple kites. So far I have found Q-power, Q-power pro, and Fire wire. I know the old Q-power was pretty stiff stuff that tended to like to get tangled. Anyone have any suggestions on line choice? I'm probably going to buy a bulk spool of 500'. Thanks!! pdxmonkeyboy Since 16 May 2006 6081 Posts forever labled as the retired kiter & motorhead Unicorn Master Mon Oct 30, 06 9:00 pm     Nobody wano Since 16 Feb 2006 17 Posts seattle   Mon Oct 30, 06 9:29 pm     can't go wrong with fire wire... I hear the pro doesn't tangle... _________________ breeze on-> tstansbury Since 06 Jun 2006 649 Posts Rowena and P.C Addicted Tue Oct 31, 06 7:42 am     how about the best lines ? anybody out there? pdxmonkeyboy Since 16 May 2006 6081 Posts forever labled as the retired kiter & motorhead Unicorn Master Tue Oct 31, 06 9:49 am     I tried to find bulk fire wire and came up empty . A 500' spool of qpower pro is $119. They wanted $129 for a set of 27meter firewire lines. Pah..lease. pkh Since 27 Feb 2005 6548 Posts Couve / Hood Site Lackey Tue Oct 31, 06 9:58 am     tstansbury wrote: how about the best lines ? anybody out there? haven't had any trouble with Best lines, much less stretch than the windwing lines I had last year and seem a bit thinner. Having colors is nice though I do wish they were 4 color instead of 2. 500' spool of q-line sounds like a lot, but your still only going to get 1 set 27m of lines and maybe 2 backups. Also q-line is real hard to cut with a hook knife in case your ever in a tough spot. dave Since 31 Oct 2006 2 Posts New Member Tue Oct 31, 06 11:07 pm     e-mail Kent at customerservice@awindofchange.com www.awindofchange.com He sells color custom sets of Q-power lines; Orange and yellow TE with white LE. I have sets of 20, 10, 7, and 5m that I use for different winds, waters, lands, kites and boards. Gives me alot more flexibility on riding.

I asked him and he just said they were super tough, but I like them too 'cause you don't have to run dacron sleeves at the ends...
