I have the film option on my old 135 cruiser Genoa.  It's a Dupont product 
called Tedlar. 

I don't know how old it is, could be 20+ years old, it's falling apart all 
over the place.  I looked into replacing it last year and Dupont was not 
producing it so it was pretty much "unobtatnium".   I just did a search 
and it looks like it's available now.. That's another option. 

As for the the "Flagging" genoa sock, that's why I'm going with the ATN 
sock. The spiral drawstring around it and the overall design is 
specifically meant to keep it steady.  Also, my boat is so thoroughly 
protected in the cove where I dock, it's blowing 25+ knots in the bay and 
you can hardly feel a breeze at my dock so wind is not really much of an 
issue for us.
