I love it and I bet she does too.

However nylon works quite well too.

I also used it on my full size sea kayak following the instructions on the Spirit Line website and had no problems getting it tight and keeping it tight.

Different people have their different preferences and most of us stick with something that works for us. There are a lot of steps in the construction of strippers where I have a technique or a tool that works well for me and I just can't get it right with the technique that I know others have great success with. It may be me or it may be the brand of material I use. Ultimately it doesn't matter. If it works for me I am happy to do it that way.
