Is that a 16 strand rope?

Count the strands. It has a 24 strand cover.

Just Poison Ivy in a different color scheme.

It depends on what you like. I've noticed neopro tends to harden (less supple) and get a little thin once it's fully stretched. It probably would be better in natural crotches until you get some picks in it... the picks definitely get worse once they're started. It's tough rope though.

Tachyon is going to feel more like Fly though, neopro feels pretty different. I would want to use a friction saver with Tachyon though... not necessarily all the time or anything but just in general.

Your body is going to thank you if you use a friction saver as much as possible.

PU....Did ya get your rope yet??

Nope I haven't really done a whole lot of climbing yet. I am still weighing in on my options. I'm still leaning towards giving the neopro a shot. I like the fact that it's an 11mm 16 strand so it could take the abuse of natural crotches a little better.
