Yes - helps get any stretch left in them, out. Reduces the number of times needed to adjust them, given that they are quality lines to start with. Crap lines will just keep on stretching ....... -
I use 50# for my light wind kites, 100# for my mid-range kites, and 150# for my stacks. I don't fly in high winds.

For my dual line kites, I used 3 different strengths - 50#, 90#, 150#. Some of the full sized kites will not do well with 50# Too much pull or too heavy a feel. Helps to have a variety and match the day's conditions to both kite and line. -
The new Silver Fox 2.2 is a really good kite for the money. It comes in SUL, UL and STD flavors. As long as the winds stay low #50 line is what I use.
