I never did get to the leaders I tied with the Tritanium.Maybe that's a good thing.Really don't like to take chances with leaders.

I'll give the Elite and Siege lines a try with schoolies in the spring.If I don't like it I won't use it again and go back to the Hybrid and BackCountry.

I've found line to be one those components you gotta try for yourself.Sometimes the results are great other times not so great.
