[bushman]

I''m looking for a better 11mm climbing line .i have been using the pos.ivy for a year .any ideas wold be great!thanks

 

[Treeswinger]

I really dont know if you will find any better! I use PI as well as Lava both are gr8 ropes!

 

[familytree]

Lava/tachyon line is great.

 

[Hutch]

I don't know, Poison Ivy is a great line if you ask me.

 

[Treeswinger]

If you can afford the dough I have heard good things abou sampson's lightning, although I havent had the pleasure of tossing an end over a limb yet!

 

[PUClimber]

I wouldn't waste time with lightning. I would go tachyon or my favorite.. the neopro.

I have been using PI for a couple of years. Good climbing line. No complaints. It does like to pick a little in natural crotches and will milk but all in all will treat you well as long as you take care of it. I think I'm going to try the Lava for my next climbing line. It is not supposed to milk.

Lava Tachyon and Poison Ivy are my two faves.

 

[Blinky]

What is it you don't like about PI?

Velocity is a very different rope, I like'em both.

I heard from a very good source that Lightning stretches like a rubber band.


Might be good for a swing rope.

I've heard the same, I don't care for the texture either.

I've footlocked up lightning and it's anything but lightning. It's a terrible rope in my opinion.

2nd that!

But come on now, Lightning is so PRETTY! I have been going through the P.I. vs Lava debate myself, and I am finally convinced that PI is the answer... A couple of guys I know have problems with their Lava not maintaining its integrity, that is becoming narrower in parts. It is not because of rope abuse either.

 

[PUClimber]

I still like my 16 strand neopro. It's the 7/16" so it's smaller but it's great stuff.

 

[Dan_Watkins]

lava is my favorite, great to climb on!

 

[Gord]

Anyone like blue moon? I think it's supposed to be a little bigger than PI.

Try the Tachyon Orange/Blue or Orange/Gold line. I have the Tachyon (orange/blue) and the Lava (blue/orange), and the Tachyon is different somehow.


I love the Orange Tachyon, and it blows P.I. away.

As far as 11mm lines go i like blaze. If you like something a bit larger PI is the way to go. I climb on on the bluemoon which is the same as PI just different color.

A rope that has the cover milk is in no way a bad/defective rope. The milking occurs normally with use as the cover strands get intimate with the core, everything tightens up and pushes the excess down the rope....

I still like the blaze the best. It's the coolest.
