No more boards for you, you destroy everything, infact the only one who managed to break two twin tips by by going hard,
I recon you could get a job in material testing.....it will break, Underoath can tell you when
Suprised he broke any! He never landed with them under his feet!
Yeah, Iv seen the pictures when hes horizontal flying along 100 miles an hour without the board, but when he lands something has to give

The problem is visually one cannot see if a line is weak or about to break. Unless it's obvious, like fraying, stretching, etc then it's a risk either way.
generally, I replace my lines ever 2 years. It's the only way to be sure they won't break under load.
Apart from being posted by Loftywinds, why did this get loads of red thumbs?
You can't tell if lines are about to break just by looking at them. It's a bit over the top to replace lines every two years, but it's not the dumbest idea there is.
Colour coded lines are a good idea, but it's not the most important thing there is. Any line wrapped around your fingers is risking de-gloving in strong conditions. Colour coded leaders and pigtails are far more important for general convenience and usability.
Damned if you, damned if you don't.
