Well someone says that is better to user 17/18mm rubber bands with higher stretch factor than 20mm rubber.
There are good products like standard "amber" 19/20mm color (i think the manifacturer is dunlop) maybe you can find some good choices on ebay shops.
I used also 19mm rubber bands from Totemsub (italy), they are less progressive, but also a good product.
I'll be heading to southern Bahamas (Exuma) next year and looking for the proper rubber type for my hawiian sling, and where to get new tips, any suggestions?
Hey Dogmatrix
I use 20mm on my 130 apex, I have a 7mm shaft and the rubber is the stiff white stuff not the soft amber. Its a beast to load but sure has loads of power. Good for all the big reef fish,dogtooth,Gt's no problem.
