I have not had any probelms with wear on my Snowbee floaters over the years and they get a fair bit of use.
The XS and the XS-D are super lines and well worth the money IMO.
If you are worried about wear then go for a value for money option via our very own Pitsford Pirate and change the lines at regualr intervals. Good lines at honest prices.
