Gleistein Ropes?

[tim361]

Has anyone on here had a go with the ropes being offered by Gleistein. Never heard of them before and a new 35m 12mm rope is around £90 which is almost half the price of all the other ropes on the market.

Not really half price hombre? Eg Cousin Atrax 35m spliced £112 delivered from Buxtons for example

I've been using the Gleistein Cougar 12mm off and on for about a month now.. It's not bad at all.  It's rope! It knots well, is a wee bit bouncy but not like bungee, and fairly easy to grip, being a 16 strand. Can't complain really 🙃

We've been using 3 of thier ropes recently. The Barracuda is a good rope to be fair. I quite like the rigging line too.
