You are going to have to check around. It's 170lb. btw. Laser Pro isn't making bridle line anymore. Whatever is in stock someplace is it. This Is A Problem.  |

If i may suggest a different bridle line,
Liros DSL or Liros PPSL and unsleeved Liros DC
Those are paraglider certifed lines and of a very high quality.

HiTech makes really good spectra cored bridle line in #100 & #170 flavors.

I just got some of each weight from Steve this past Wednesday. He wasn't out of yellow then. I don't know if its Laser Pro bridle line though.  Denny |

i always like using the 100# (that is/was) made by Laser (innovative textiles)......I try to stock up when i can...
if steve does not have any i would imagine that a specifically kite building shop (with initials HeH) out there has some sort of bridle line available...

Good to know that Laser pro is at least making White.
I had heard that they were totally out of the kite line business pretty much.
It would be nice to try some of these others.
Are they available in The States?

+1 It's what I've used on every kite I've built, and I've been happy with it. |

I've used Hi Tech but so far as I know they only make black and white and I really like grey bridles. Last year I bought a couple of of those pre-packaged sets from a store that still had a few so I'm set for a little while anyway. R-Sky has been using some very nice mid-weight bridle line on UL's and SUL's of late and I would love to find some of that in a heavier weight. I've checked with Roger but so far no luck finding any in the States. I still consider LP 170# the best ever at that weight. |

The last time I talked to Theresa with the Kite Shoppe, she was still able to get line from Laser Pro. She also has variety of lines from Europe.
