Jens Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 Great thread. Anybody see any screaming deals on 80meter ropes? 70m ropes? --------- The only time me or any of my buds use 10mm plus ropes is in Yosemite. Why are the skinny ropes often way more expensive when they are made off the same spool of thread at the same factory? I've seen 10.5 fatties for 60 bucks. Quote

I've seen 10.5 fatties for 60 bucks. Perhaps you should pose this question to our resident retail expert, JohnDavidJR? As THE foremost expert in this field, he knows more about retail values than any other poster here, ever. I bet MalWart makes a functionally similar model you can find in the hardware dept, for about $20. Quote

Lodestone Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 Why is it that the "rope must be soaked in water and allowed to dry slowly prior to first use"?
