    As i see your setup, tension on the leader legs is half of the weight you use? And your setup still uses the disk system?

    Just a small clarification of the background of duckstermans question, we are trying to establish some kind of formula for the tension to use on your leader legs when twisting in a V setup. Ideally it would be something like a percentage of the theoretical breaking strength of your leader material. So the data we'd like to know are:
    - what material
    - how much strands in the tip section
    - how much weight
    - how much length reduction you get
