Has anyone had any experience with Chikara Nylon? Someone mentioned it on another forum and I can't find a lot of information about it other than it seems popular for kites. The weight is comparable to Shield silnylon so if only I could find some info on HH it could be a good substitute for us on the other side of the pond.
