Re: Bumper Material

What about making our own high-durability 'cloth' out of UHMW tape backed by aircraft-grade duct tape?

Has anyone tested sailcloth-on-sailcloth friction (sorry for not searching)?

The Cordura, under rough FRC conditions, seems to have the puncture resistance of a balloon... There are 2 'cuts' in our bumpers this year after years of having nothing wrong.
