Good Value
This backing is affordable, does the job and comes in neat colors. That checks all the boxes so far as I'm concerned. Granted, I say this as somebody for whom the backing rarely leaves my reel very often, which I think is likely the case for most fly anglers. Thus, I can't directly speak to its performance under high intensity situations with monster fish peeling into the backing. That said, I still can't see this line not performing admirably even under those circumstances.

High quality at low prices.
The high quality, small diameter and 30lb breaking strength at low cost, you can't ask for more.I have been following Aventik products for a long time now. Pictured: The Aventik 5/6 reel $16.99, is outfitted with Aventik 30lb backing $7.00, Aventik WF5F $8.99 and my personal Loop to Loop connection. Very happy with the quality and performance of Aventik products.

Weights right
As a first time fly fisherman I am testing the waters. The price was right. I have not yet put the rod reel and line together.

Excellent backing
This backing is smooth, thin and nice. I loaded a full hundred meters of 30lb backing on my 7wt reel, then my double taper fly line, and it all fit perfectly. Couldn't be more happy.

Good quality but 3 spools not connected
Good quality,, great price but...I was fooled that the 3 spools were not connected which now requires an additional nail knot for more backing than 100 yes.
