[pct-l] X-Ply? The mystery super fabric?

[hike2600 at yahoo.com (O. Julius)]

Hi there everyone! This question maybe a little late in coming, but here it goes...
My father-in-law attended the ADZPCTKO and really had a blast! He garnered quite an impressive little collection of lightweight ideas in just one day...a true meeting of the minds!
When he got back, he told me about a fabric called "X-Ply" which is supposed to be very strong, waterproof, and LIGHTER than silnylon! I have searched and searched, but can't find this stuff. I did find a sailcloth place, which I'm assuming this is some kind of spinnaker cloth, but no where to purchase it. HELP! Could anyone provide me with some insight? I'm trying to make an ultralight poncho-tarp.
Thanks all!
