    I'm going to go with the d12 max from these guys for my suspension.

    BTW, I hope your not stranded in the UK by the ash cloud.
    No problem

    It's looking like I will be stuck here, I have a flight booked on Sunday and keep on checking it but it's looking doubtful. Thankfully I'm at my parents and I have my work laptop with me so can work from here if needs be. I'm more worried about missing a date I have on Thursday

    I have found some english braids dynamic line from Cygnus sails in kettering.
    Its £1.74/ metre

    Heres the thing, the 2mm stuff is rated at 900kg!!

    compared to amsteel and marlow d12 at 600kg, it is way better. It is the same strength as sk78. I am thinking this is a typo, It can't be true.
    If it is, I can hang easily on this 2mm stuff!

    Edit; I just double checked and this 2mm stuff is 150kg stronger than 2.5 mm amsteel blue.
