Rigid without packaging - needs to be broken

This is a decent line but is quite stiff on arrival. The friction clutches I use seem to take quite a long break-in period as my clutches deform easily when I remove tension from the line which has led to some related issues with this product. It certainly feels premium and durable, but you should always take your time with new hardware, especially when life is at stake. If the cable doesn't get more flexible over time, I'll downgrade my rating from 3/5.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • Some bugs

High quality: Outdoor

Was exactly as described, very nice for a change. Good company, bought online from them before Revain. I use this Prusik line on 11mm static rope so it's in the 60-80% size range which works best for this application. I have had issues with other lines being too tight and not releasing, perhaps due to the materials they are made from, but this "kevlar etc line" is very suitable for a standard Prusik with only 2 turns and is well resolved. I have yet to try Blake or other knots and will…

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • Update available

Sturdy, works best with VT

. Great product. They're a bit tight at first, but as long as people tie their knots properly and use TDS (tie, dress and set) I've seen a lot of people not using the right number of loops and this causes slippage. This works better with some holds like VT where you need to tighten him up well when using Disstol on others like him. But highly recommended, especially with VT. I used the first one 2 years in a row with Destol and went under way faster than I should have. It never burned out, I…

Pros
  • . It's amazing.
Cons
  • . Has defects.
