Sterling Evolution Velocity Bicolor Dry Rope - 9.8mm

I have been eyeing up this rope for a while, but as it is not easily available in New Zealand I got this when on a trip to the US recently.
I've only used it for a couple of days indoors and outdoors so far, but the rope feels lovely straight-away - soft enough to make clipping easy.
Looking forward to using it some more!

I have two of these ropes, the 60m and the 70m. My 60 meter is still in pretty good shape after 3 years of pretty hard use and it's only sign of wear is that it has gotten a little fatter but still handles like a dream. The sheath is still in very good shape even with a good amount of being run through dirt and sharp rocks with minimal fuzz and no damage to the sheath. I just picked up the 70 a few weeks ago and I almost forgot how amazing this rope is when it's fresh. Best rope I have ever used.

This is a great rope. I've used it all over the country on granite, sandstone, sharp dolomite, in the sun and the rain. Love the bicolor pattern too. Makes rope management easier.

Love this rope, been my go to for 2 years now and has now gone into retirement. I'm buying the same one for new adventures!



As stated before... the color when you first use it... holy moly! You can see it from the parking lot of a 3 mile hike in... it's insane. You feel like a serious "bro" on the route, BUT, it turns into quite a nice green after 15 pitches or so!

I've used this rope a several days at crags in TN - really like it. Handles very well, like BiPattern. I give it 4 stars only because 5 is pretty hard to earn.

Ive climbed on this rope for a year (70m) no complaints. I wish i got the same rope for my 60m. I don't have the enthusiasm for 5 stars, its just a rope

This rope is great! I got the super yellow color, and fair warning it is obnoxiously bright during your first 5-6 days climbing on it. I've used it for a few weeks now, and once dirty it is still beautiful, but can't be seen from 3 miles away like the new rope.

This rope seems to be everything that I want in a rope. The only thing that remains to be seen is durability.
-great cool bi-color
-nice and lightweight
-perfect feel- seems thinner than it is
-doesn't get tangled at all

My only complaint is that in its short life, it seems to pick up dirt rather quickly even though I use a tarp.
