Default Clear Yaw string tape?

I have had very satisfactory service from my MK3 and MK4 yaw strings.
Nice clear adhesive patch that can be removed from the canopy without leaving a mark. Very satisfying triangular shape to the adhesive patch gives me a very warm feeling inside whenever I examine it during flight.

Also, very excellent customer service. One time at Minden I was having some questions about the length and responsiveness of the fibrous indicating structure and the company representative drove up to my plane and addressed my concerns in less than one hour from the telephone call.

My understanding is that clear yaw string tape can only be safely used with clear yaw strings

QT,

You will be pleased to learn that the new MKIV.1a "high tech", "clearly invisible", imaginary yaw string is in stock, on sale at 50% off, and ready for immediate non-shipment. Just clean a spot for it on your canopy, send payment, and enjoy! :c)

I'd jump on this is a heartbeat except for all the comments I would have to endure about the king's new yawstring...

Unfortunately, the dealer network is very thin. Just try getting your

Eric,

Quit complaining and move to Nevada. Besides superb soaring conditions, you can get your string serviced in less than an hour. Also, being Nevada, I hear you can get almost anything else serviced too . . . though I wouldn't know about that.
