[QUOTE="Hddnis, post: 7555477, member: 17127"] You need some way to connect the wire to the eye so they move together. The rope on a wire core flipline is so your adjuster has something to grab, it really isn't load bearing beyond traction. If the two different materials are not attached at the end they move separately. Same with a hollow braid rope, fibers in the core don't stretch as much and the jacket can pull over the ends, leaving you with a tail that is jacket only. [/QUOTE]
