For those that haven't heard of this before, 2mm dyneema rope, stronger than kevlar. 16 strand with polyester outer (the reflective part). This is because dyneema is extremely strong under tension, but not with abrasion, hence the polyester/dyneema gives the best of both worlds. Flexibility and strength. You can buy thinner weaker examples (say 0.75mm), but we prefer the marginal increase in diameter for the knowledge that you have the added strength in the bag. Approx 1.9mm diameter, very low stretch, 2.8g weight per metre. For camping, standard or ultra light, you do not need thicker. The breaking strain is much higher than any tent can handle. If this snaps, please send us pictures of the tent in the morning if you can still find it! Please note, variations are in meters. Reflective, so no more tripping over at night.hopefully. Extremely strong, as per above and very light. You spend a fortune on the best tents, equip it with the best guy lines. Variations on the listing are lengths in metres.

Reflective Gear Lacks Durability in Climbing

Based on my experience, this reflective gear promised a lot but didn't deliver. It was so flimsy that within just a few uses of climbing, it started showing signs of wear and tear. The reflective material also didn't work as well as advertised. On the upside, the gear is very lightweight and didn't weigh me down during my climb.

Pros
  • Lightweight
Cons
  • Poor durability and reflective material

Need new laces?

My snowboard boots needed new laces. These laces are very long and very small in diameter to work with Solomon's lace cleats. This Dyneema line is very strong and durable and is perfect for spikes.

Pros
  • Rope, cord and webbing
Cons
  • Quality

This is Dynama. Best in Climbing

My first test was to cut it with scissors. this is my "dyneema test". If it tears like pulled pork, it's a dynema. How do you cut this material? I have found the ceramic blade to cut Dyneema cleanly without tearing. Let's get to the cable. It appears to be nylon-wrapped Dyneema with a reflective stripe. The color is very bright so you can't miss it day or night! My original thought was to use this guy line for my ultralight tents. Turns out I gave up after seeing the cable. In my opinion it's…
