I hear it's pretty grippy, and wears really well....but that's it. If you get into a pushing match with roughtops vs. nitrile, both with similar gearboxes/speeds, you're not going to find one will be drastically better than the other.

If you don't think it's worth the hassle, just use roughtop/colsons. You're not going to loose any needed power.
