been on P'ivy for the last 3 months but with a HC, its a nice rope, very nice in the hands, though i'm starting notice some signs of wear and it will be interesting to see how well it lasts. It runs through pulleys and such very nicely and though its a dual core and needs milking it in no way requires it on the same level as the blaze, i think my mate got about 2 feet of slack off after milking his blaze.

 

Planning on buying a short rope, and though i really like the P'vy i might buy a different brand, just to try em out, though with winter coming i reckon i'll switch back to good old 13mm XTC so i can grip it with gloves better as i was thinking of the Imori but as i will be usining it mostly this winter then if it gets wet and stays wet it aint so good for me.

Imori for me. self tends with the sj very easy and its nice to pull as it feels thicker than it is. Real nice soft rope.

dont know, i use my other rope (yale xtc) when its wet to keep the imori in good nick:blushing:

One day i will get caught out in a downpour when i am climbing with the imori and then i will tell you...

I haven't used the other two, but I have been amazed at the longevity of tachyon, seriously hard wearing. well worth the money IME
