Just wondering what ropes everyone thinks are the best for footlocking?

I like ropes that are well used with a lot of fuzz...but then again I used a brand new one the other day....worked just fine...was wondering though if there are differences in peoples eyes....I can't really see a difference anymore...just get good locks and take it from there...so maybe we should look at what type of grip in your boots that work the best?

velocity

 

[countryboypa31]

Lowest stretch possible

 

[marlinspiker]

snake bite is super low stretch but can only be used for ascent

 

[Dan_Watkins]

lava or velocity are my top two

I personally prefer velocity.
Though many of my Co-workers prefer a thicker rope for the grip. I think the "stretch" in the rope can actually be utilized for bounce on the next lock.
I think it depends on what your locking for, I mean looking for. Fastest isn't always the most efficient.
