We all know The whole point of the leader ban on many fisheries is you can't have a knot above the hook link. Fact.
The Concept of this tubing clearly doesn't so I can't see an issue with it. It slides freely up your main line and the line will pull free in the event of a crack off.

That should have been nth as in nth degree and it's a valid scrabble word. Apologies if you already knew this mate

Free fall is a great tubing and I use it, however it's much stiffer that it used to be. The Previous version was much more supple and hugged the lake bed better.

I've just seen, on a Catfish group, that Furnace are now allowing this tubing.

Other way round mate. The original is the stiffer, heavier stuff. The newer stuff is lighter and more supple.
I still have both, as well as the new wide bore stuff. I actually prefer the heavier, stiffer original stuff but the new stuff is still brilliant.

Rather than start a new thread does anyone use this or is it safe to use with a helicopter lead or best used lead clip system, thanks.

MVF banned it due an an instance where the inner steel core resulted in a tethering incident. They also banned cradles due to a member dropped a fish onto the frame and popping a rib of the capture.

Its all random chance and Issac Newtons fault if he had not invented gravity fish never would have fallen.

Funnily enough I don't remember ever hurting a fish when everyone simply laid them on the wet grass... Or even when some visionaries started to use baby changing mats

I don't get the rule banning leaders. even with tubing when the line breaks (say 6 feet) above Tubing it will generally pig-tail and make the rig a tether rig anyway. The further from the rig the break the more likely this is, especially with the tow rope people use because leaders are banned.
