I know what you mean with the springiness. I also notice that lots of synthetics will "gather" around a central point and the bunched up hairs wind to gether feeling like you are lathering with a rabbits foot rather than hair. There are several factors contributing to this, but the increase in backbone has a huge effect on this with synthetics. So sythents like plisson don't have this problem as much as those with some backbone. I've tried addressing this particular issue with the Übersoft line. I've also collaborated with Peter specifically on the the 25mm size Blackwolf to address this issue. And that is why I carry this knot in the 25mm. Now at the end of the day it's still a synthetic so this issue is ameliorated not eliminated.

I've never noticed springiness or bunching. My badger tangles every freaking time though.
Synthetic aren't for everyone I guess 0.o
