    People have said on BC, that he is using NBG98/BG66 @35lbs not sure if this is correct.

    What's wrong with a pro using 35lbs. I'd say it's "retarded" if he was using 17lbs.

    HAHAH dude people who use30-31-32 at a professional level is reasonable. But holy jeezus I have never seen a man use 36 pounds. i just couldn't imagine how he genrates power with such high tension.

    Thomas Laybourn uses 36 lbs, and I read that Lcw uses 16,5 kgs, what is 36 lbs too.

    You're correct.
    BG66 Sharp (although still named after the thinner BG66) is 0.68mm thick, which is the same as BG80 and thus should be able to withstand up to 36lbs tension as what Thomas Laybourn demonstrated.
