Nice! A Madrock Quick Draw Thong (tm.)
Wherever did you get that?!
Just so we don't totally shit on your thread Mike:
What is the main consideration besides being right where the other guy may be wrong? Is it the weight or volume of 6mm perlon vs. 5.5mm tech line or 5mm perlon? It seems to me that it would be better to leave your toothbrush behind and go with the 6mm (I don't know shit about the "tech" line). I have read and heard both 6mm or 7mm perlon is the standard, depends on who is spraying. I use 6mm. I do carry a handy 15' lengh of 5mm around wih me for lashing stuff or making prussics, whatever, but I'm not carrying a machete either so I can afford a few ounces
