Looking for a couple of new sinktips ... like I need any more smile

Was wondering if anyone had tried the Airflo 40+ std. vs. the 40+ expert (will be looking at DI 6 or 8).

Other option might be Rio DC sintips, in similar sinkrates.

Love 'em, hate 'em? Any feedback appreciated wink

had problems with the airflo when i tried it. didnt last long before it started to crack. My last rio striper line lasted me about 3 years which was pretty good, but i just had to chop the head off that one and give it a new running line.
the rio sink tip i used this year seemed just fine. I am not a big critiquer of lines though until they start to crack.

Bob,

Airflo changed there finish this last year and hopefully fixed the cracking problems. But the only time I cast the 40+ it rocked. Sparkey can answer your questions on them.
