Terrible Rope

My boyfriend and I brought this rope as well a Petzl rope on a two month climbing trip to Asia. We switched between the two ropes and after only a month of hard climbing the sheath of this rope started fraying badly. After a few falls projecting a route I'd come down with pink and green fuze on me from the sheath. I've climbed on and owned many different ropes over the years and this was by far the worst. We had to chop the thing up to five times because the ends wore so quickly. The Petzl held up beautifully and was used as frequently.
