Airflo Ridge Striper Floating Fly Line
The original Airflo Ridge Striper Floating Fly Line performs well at all distances and helps you make longer casts. The Airflo Ridge Striper Floating Fly Line features a Power Core for solid hook sets and is looped at both ends.

There’s a difference between cold and really cold… especially when your fly line starts misbehaving. The original environment where fly fishers started to appreciate the benefits of Airflo's polyurethane coatings – an unrelenting toughness and unbelievable suppleness in the coldest conditions - made the original Airflo Ridge Striper Floating Fly Line an Airflo favorite with east coast striper fishers. Improved by the inclusion of Power Cores, the Airflo Ridge Striper Floating Fly Line's memory is reduced to zero and the uncanny ability to set hooks at long range helps you catch even more fish.

- Fly Line Length: 105 feet

Leland on Airflo Fly Lines
Airflo is a stand-out among fly line manufacturers in several ways, but
one of Airflo's defining characteristics is their use of polyurethane
(PU) instead of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) to build their fly lines.
What’s more, Airflo fly lines are built on incredibly low-stretch cores –
6% or less.
Leland on Airflo
With a huge following in their native UK and across Europe, Airflo is
undoubtedly one of the preeminent names in fly line manufacturing. Since
Airflo's start in the late 1980s under UK angler Paul Burgess, Airflo
has stayed at the forefront of fly line design and development, with a
slew of patents to show their industry leadership. Whether you’ve been
fly fishing Airflo for years, or have just started to catch wind of
their virtues, you should know that Airflo fly lines are hugely
impressive, and Leland is thrilled to have the opportunity to carry
them.

Only Airflo fly lines are made from UV resistant super tough
polyurethane. There are no liquids used in the manufacture of Airflo fly
lines and therefore they last longer than PVC lines. With dry lubricant
in the outer coating, Airflo fly lines stay cleaner than other lines
and don’t require as much care as PVC lines.
Airflo on Airflo
Airflo is the fly fishing world's leading manufacturer of solvent free
fly lines and is responsible for developing a series of innovations
unparalleled by any other fly line manufacturer. Whilst Airflo may not
have invented the fly line, innovation has been a keystone at every
stage in Airflo's development, being the originators of Polyurethane
coatings, creating the first welded loops, developing low stretch cores
and even the world's first density compensated fly lines. More
recently, we at Airflo have developed an advanced range of fly lines
with Ridged coatings that reduce surface friction and improve
shootability. The final result is what we believe to be the world's
most advanced range of fly lines and, judging by the bandwagon Airflo
has created with our continuous stream of innovation, most of our
competitors would seem to agree.
