This is the first rope I've ever bought. Perfect weight/stiffness combo. It gives great catches as well. Everyone I went climbing with this past weekend loved it. The downs…

This is our 3rd Sterling Evolution Velocity 9.8 and even better now that they offer the rasta-fied pattern. Who doesn't like to advertise that climbin and tokin go hand in han…

This is my second rope and love it so far. I have only had two climbing trips on it and was initially worried that the increase in diameter, from 9.8mm, would have an effect…

This rope is a work horse, Great sheath, not to heavy for the size, and flakes out well. Bottom line if you want a rope that is going to last and last for a long time this is…

Nicest rope i've used by far, only tried a dozen or so, but this one feeds through gear the best and half the time i fall just for the fun of barely feeling it. The other half…

I've always been a big fan of Sterling Ropes They're durable, supple, and come in some rad color combos. I went with the 60M and got it in blue(to match my beautiful eyes) It…

An awesome rope all around, smooth belaying, perfectly stiff, and easy to clip. Definitely the thinnest rope I've used before and for sure not as durable as my workhorse cords…

This rope is sweet. It's super thin but you can trust it. Its got a great color but fades really fast. Take your time learning it. :D…

This rope did great with sport, trad, and of course top rope. But where it really shined was specifically while leading. The smaller diameter made for an easier clip in on tho…

This rope is only 9.2mm yet holds up as well as any width rope. I am now addicted to these skinny ropes especially now that I have a Grigri2 that accommodates these thin ropes…

I posted a review earlier about this rope. After having used it for about 10 trips, I would like to go back and mention my that the sheath of this rope wears very easily. Runn…

I just picked up a new rope for the year. I went with a Petzl rope and got the 9.8 Nomad. One of the cool things about all Petzl ropes is they keep it pretty simple by giving…

50 meters is a great length for top-roping and alpine, 10.7mm is a great size for durability and packability, dry treating is a great way to increase life and maximize flexibi…

These ropes are bad. The very first time I used them the sheath tore exposing the core of the ropes. This was from normal wear and tear - no falls or sharp edges. I sent the d…
