I do use it and yes it does have memory, I got the information on the material from the book "Blue Water Hunting" bh Terry Maas. If you have not read the book you really should.

It is not only a great read with epic stories and world record fish but very useful technical advice from guns to the way freediving effects the body.

If you have an fish store like for salt water aquariums by you, they carry the same stuff but in 1/4 od stuff, real thin like for fish tanks because it is ozone resistant and hold up to salt water to. you can get a 4 ft piece for a couple buck and yank on it and test it that way, It is what I did to check it out before I dropped 50$ on a roll.

good luck

Joel
Yeah, the lady laughed at me for about two minutes
"I dont think this stuff has been tested for that!"

Im going to see If i can find that book on island and if not Ill order it on amazon or something. Thanks for all the advice!

I also looked at that link settingsteele sent. Looks like useful stuff but I kinda like the idea of the 1400lb spectra as a back up It could just be my ignorance though. any reason why you (settingsteele) prefer the regular bungee?
