Catch

By Benny B August 18, 2011

I'm a fan. Its been fairly easy to work with and hasn't developed any dead spots after a season and a half of use and many falls. The Teflon coating makes it a bit more slick than other ropes I've used, but this is kinda nice sometimes as it allows it to pass smoothly through belay devices, biners, etc, and my partner has never had trouble catching a fall because of it being slick (it may even help to make the lead falls a bit softer). I'd agree that the half mark is difficult to see at times, but without buying a two toned rope, that's generally what you get and it still works well when I'm looking for it to line up a rappel after cleaning a route. When it becomes time to retire this one, if they still make a similar rope I'd probably buy it again.
