yeah ive heard gd things about tachyon but blaze is very nice to climb on its just coming out on the last 2mtrs

Both my blaze ropes have milked. i just make a habit of drawing the friction hitch right off the end of the rope when I see it happening. Gently however as you you don't want to stretch the sheath just settle it down.

 

Good rope - the problem will not persist long

i have both and like both will be interesting what tacky rope is like a year down the line i have never really had a problem with milking blaze although the spiderjack really pushes the sheath down and milks 6 inch of most ropes and then there good to go
