In an earlier thread I recommended using Samson Amsteel for the 5th Element line that goes from the power strap to the ring halfway to the kite. Now I think Amsteel has too much elasticity for this application. According to the data sheet, 13.5m will stretch 9.5cm (3.7") under tension of 280 lbs. That is a huge amount of stretch and could screw up the length of the 5th line below the ring and it could reek havoc on trying to set your powerstrap.
Now that I think the Amsteel might suck for this application, I want to warn others about the potential elasticity problem. I haven't noticed a huge amount of stretch but it has been difficult to get the 5th line set right. If you already bought the stuff based on my recommendation, I am sorry unless it seems to be working for you. If it is or not, please let us know.
