Are you running the ultimate (mag) kits on your slide divers? I am super happy running my slide divers with the ultimate kits as my low divers. I can run 11" paddles on both at the same time with no issues. I do not use any swivels to tie my braid to the wire. I use an Alberto knot. I do upgrade the cheap barrel swivel included in the kit to a good quality ball bearing swivel and have zero line twist.
