Evans Starzinger is doing some bench testing of lines/knots/splices and the results are very interesting. http://forums.sailinganarchy.com/index.php?showtopic=154025 Best of all, I'm learning new knots. If you don't want to plough through the whole discussion, the bottom line is that the XLS is equal in strength to Sta-Set but stretches very slightly more. Evans has an interesting comment in that his strength numbers agree with Samson's, but NER's numbers seem inflated. (my paraphrase).
