Majority of the SFl. guys use windons, dig through the forums, and you will read about half a dozen windon failures this year. i personaly dont like them, not becuse they are bad, but that i perfer a long 30ft leader and about 6ft of double. i trust my bimmini connections alot more than some glue and a lashing. its all i really fish, so i am biased.

leaders are much simpler, however not as safe..... personal prefrence, i guess..

how many big marlin boats do you see using windons???? not many thats for sure. a billfish is a billfish........ i go with the tried and tested before technology.
