Yes you were right.
Thanks for the vigorous field tests, I hope you are feeling better.

Not sure about this material yet, but I will watch with interest!!

Been researching it and the only negative comment I have heard was that for heavier rods it tended to compress where your thumb pushed against the handle.

Would be very interested to see one in the flesh.
