Gashmore, As you know I have my entire cutter rigged trimaran in Dynex Dux. I recently had a sailmaker out for a sail. Tony Morrelli, he jumped around a lot and helped me tune the rig. He kept saying "this stuff acts just like wire" He would yank on a shroud or stay and become real enthused and kept saying, this is amazing, it acts just like wire.
He said changes that are this big don't just come along very often. Combine that with the fact it is not exotic, expensive and with in reach of the DIY guys....well he said he can understand why people are reluctant to trust it. This is just not a normal event.
He said he like the deadeyes like I do, but he felt regular sailors will want to use turnbuckles. Guess John better get a photo of the terminator attached to a turnbuckle.
