Feel like i have to write a short paragraph on why i should get the rope haha. Great insightful video as always Jason. Been trying to catch up with all videos since i came across your channel 3 weeks ago. Your top rope and anchor building videos have very useful. I actually saved one of them and followed it while building a top rope anchor at a cliff last week.

Thanks for interacting and making content we need, you helped make my first outdoor climbing trip a success, I’m planning on taking my lead class soon so having this rope would be such perfect timing to help me and my partner progress in this sport and start building up or own gear rack. I hope I win!! 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽 thanks again!

Phenomenal video on ropes! Last season I picked up an Edelrid 8.9mm 80m for long trad adventures and holy cow those thin ropes are soooo smooth - and 80m is totally justifiable when the rope is that light! You can also link sooo many pitches that you'd never expect to link, and the extra 10m is great in case you need to cut it because it'll still be over 70m. And somehow it's still rated at 7 UIAA falls, which is just one less than most 9.8-10ish ropes!

Yeah, what you'll find as you start to get really small ropes like that that are still dynamic ropes is the core becomes more like a cord and less like a rope so they are able to maintain the same strenght but the rope can feel slightly more stiff than a larger rope that has more "rope" characteristics vs. "cord". Sounds like it's working for you!

Good info in this and all the videos lately, been subbed for a while! If you have ever gotten rained on at the crag or on trail with rope strapped on the outside of your pack and had to carry that wet rope a distance, you'll know what I mean 😁 I would argue that dry treated ropes have a place anywhere outdoors, and not just in alpine conditions. Many non-dry ropes are significantly less money, so if someone can only get one rope and a standard rope is what one can afford to get out climbing, then go for it! I know I can find a place for a standard 9.8mm in my current rope stable, to take some abuse on sunny days and keep others in the bag to climb another time.

I'll share one inaccuracy in your post: It's not easy to make money on YT, if it was, everyone would do it.
