Hi Beverly, I guess it depends on what kind of synthetic lines you have. I have been using the Zilco marathon reins for single and now pairs and I find that they stick to my gloves. Its very nice for my arthrytic hands because they don't slip easily. If you are using synthetic reins without a rough, sticky surface, they could be very hard to hold, especially if they are thin and narrow. I think wider reins are generally easier to hold because they fit better between your palm and the base of your fingers, so you don't have to squeeze go hard with your fingers. I wish my Zilco reins were wider but I do like their non slip surface.
