What's everyone's go to tubing?
Ive always used korda but wondering if there was anything better in the market? Maybe something that blends in slightly better

Wasn't there an original version then a later version that was different and not as good?

The one I purchased was the one that comes in pre cut lengths and I find it superb.Im not sure if it changed,the one I use threads really easy,sinks like a brick and follows the contours of the lake.

Yonny might remember as I think he was using the original and then someone mentioned his was different.Both came in 1 metre lengths and threaded easily, I might be wrong but there was a difference in the look and feel

The last ones i had didn't seem as supple and the braid outer seemed tighter i use the brown version in 600mm it is still very good though

Yes it changed quite dramatically for the worse buddy, but still the best option despite that imo.

The less supple tighter weave is the old stuff which I preferred, can I ask where you got that mate?

Ive just looked back through my ebay sales and it was from november 2019 and birdstackle, i thought this must be the newer version which is a lot stiffer than the tubing i had been using all year which is quite supple.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
