Thanks, I'll keep an eye on that. You'd think I would have lost at
least one in the past twenty years. That is what I use to hold my 9.5
foot double ended paddle to my role bar on my Jeep. Come to think of
it, I've also used them to hold my canoe on the role bar (I have some
realy long ones). I guess I'll have to stop using them on my Jeep,
motorcycle, backpack, canoe, cycle, and snowmobile sleigh. However,
just to be on the safe side, I have taken the liberty of CC'ing Velcro
Industries to see what they have to say for themselves. Thanks
Michael.
