Great rope (but one caution)

Mammut Supersafe Climbing Rope - 10.2mm

Rating for this product: 4 October 24, 2010

I'm on my 3rd one of these, and I am very impressed with its durability. 18 months after buying my latest, it looks great, no furry sheath, no obvious wear points, despite hundreds of feet of jumaring in addition to the usual climbing action. I love its feel, and I have had no problems with twisting or tangling as was mentioned in another review. I plan to buy 2 more soon.

ONE IMPORTANT NOTE:
I have had Tiblocs slip several times on this model of rope, perhaps because of the characteristics of the cut-resistant sheath. I am experienced in Tibloc use, and they were correctly applied and weighted. That is so far the only time I have had ANY sheath damage, as minor as it was. Perlon (nylon) cord prussiks also do not seem to grip this rope very well, again probably because of the special sheath. I now routinely carry a Petzl Microcender (or Jumars) in case I need to ascend the rope.
