Moosejaw Staff Pick
"I use the bicolor version of the Evolution Velocity rope for most of my climbs. It's a great size for almost anything you are going to hit up, light enough to pack for some distance, but still heavy duty enough to take a beating. I think it is a good value too because it can take 6 big falls. The Evolution Velocity is dynamic enough to absorb a lot of the energy of a fall, and I have not had the sheath loosen up at all. The bicolor is a really nice feature too because when you are belaying both the climber and belayer can easily see which end they need to clip into."
Jeff - Moosejaw Secret Headquarters
The Evolution Velocity 9.8mm Rope by Sterling has it all and is our most popular of the Evolution series. Just the right amount of stiffness, so your rope doesn't flop during critical clips and its silky smooth sheath withstands abrasion and slides effortlessly to reduce rope drag. This is the rope of choice for Chris Sharma and is what he uses for working the toughest routes.

"A silk...!!!" 06/14/13
Guaaauuuuu!!! Is very light!!! It is a strong rope without being too thick. Smooth handling. And is a pleasure to fall with this rope.9.8 mm makes it versatile enough to be used for just about anything.It´s been with me in sport climbing, traditional climbing, walking in glaciers, top roping. It has more lives that a cat!!!I think it is not cheap. Fortunately I bought it at clearance price.Totally recommended.
"Great Rope" 05/22/13
The size is great, you don't have to worry about whether it will be effective with assisted locking devices or not, which is nice if the people you climb with have a lot of diverse gear. The Dry treated is always nice, with a lot of stretch, and it can really take a beating.
"Awesome Rope! Worth every penny!" 04/29/13
I love this rope! Really smooth and has low rope drag. Although I would suggest to get it dry fit, a darker color, and a rope bag. The first day it takes a trip outside will be the day it is broke in.
"A great rope for plenty of use!" 04/21/13
I have had the 70 meter in the Rasta for about two years. I have loved it! I have found that this rope works great for sport routes because it is stiff enough it is easy to clip into your draws, but flexible enough to coil and tie your knots. I would highly recommend this rope because it lasts. It show minimal wear at its two-year point, and it is a great rope to have around! Happy climbing!
"Women flock at the sight of a Sterling Evolution!" 02/26/13
I've been climbing for about 6.5 years now and absolutely love Sterlings ropes! They feed well, handle well, wear well, and the ladies can't get enough of a man with such a sexy rope! Fun times will be had by all and projects will be completed with the Sterling Evolution!
"Great rope and works wonders on gri-gri" 02/06/13
If you have gri-gri get this rope. I slides like butter but stops on a dime. This rope is the perfect all around rope. This rope is for all levels from 5.6 to a 5.15. Me personally, this is the best all-around rope. This could be your only rope you need for climbing.
"I like the rope for it's color and pattern but my Mammut is better I feel" 01/23/13
I chose this rope b/c I needed another rope that it a tad lighter than my Mammut Eiger (which I love) and I had always wanted a rope with this color pattern and design. It is an OK rope - Sterling makes fine ropes - however I don't feel this rope handles 1/2 as good as my Mammut! My Mammut rope handles better, doesn't tend to tangle like this rope seems to do for SOME reason unknown to me.
"superb rope, 60m and dry does it" 01/22/13
This rope is fabulous. Mine is sixty meters and dry, and exactly what I needed. Its slick, and runs through the device nicely. I read a lot of places that seventy meters was the way to go, however sixty has worked out fine for me and I always have enough to spare. The only thing I would change is a middle mark in the center. That would be nice.
