"pretty sweet rope" - Review of Edelweiss Laser Arc Climbing Rope - 9.6mm

I have had this rope for 2 seasons now and have mostly done multipitch routes with it and it rocks for that. It runs smooth, feels good in your hands, fits nicely in your belay device for those long rappels and rocks as a 70 meter. Because of this rope, I would not ever buy a 60M single color rope EVER again. I bought my husband the 70m 9.6 Dry and it rocks for ice climbing HOWEVER, the sheath tends to fray easily. I was surprised at how this rope shows wear and tear for an Edelwiess. My buddy bought the same rope at the same time I bought mine and his already has a core shot (at the end) where the rope got pinched in a V slot. Also another friend has used the dry version for ice climbing ofr one season and it is time to get a new one already.
