Dorothy, you sweetheart, thanks for the kind words. Christian and I were just talking about you guys. Do be in touch.
Meanwhile, you and everyone else might want to know that the soft shackle world is evolving rapidly. We've gone from shackles that tested somewhere around 110% to 150% of the rope strength, to some that are pushing 260%, with further improvements on the horizon. Watch Allene's site for details. I hope we'll have some here, too, especially as the current strength champ is one of my babies.
Fair leads,
Brion
