Ocean Poly Vs Yale Blaze

[DrewB]

beeline vs armorprus?

 

no question! armour prus wins hands down! dont know why but i never got on with beeline, aklways seemed to grab too much if you stopped too quickly and it hated the rain...............

Between Levin and Paraparaumu SH1,thanks for your reply Drew.Do you know who sells Armour prus in NZ.

[DrewB]

its made here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! not sure down where you are, just phone donaghys and ask them or pm Ropey ( hes the tree guy from donaghys) its about $12 per metre.

Thanks again Drew,I knew it was made here,I been looking thru the Levin Sawmakers catalog(local Arb Shop) and I couldnt see it.I luv my 10mm beeline but I have heard good things about armour prus so I gotta try it out.My Dad uses Ocean Poly only,I see him sanding it when its new.I dont know much about blaze.

[DrewB]

the armour prus will outlive your beeline 10-1, but i do prefer the 8mm to the 10mm, what rope are you sing it on?

Hi Drew,I just got a brand new XTC(plus,red/white,16 strand,1/2") today,still in its wrapping,probably not the flashest available.So far I got a choice of 10mm beeline or ocean poly to go with it but like I said before I want to try armour prus too.Thanks for helping.

Hey minty,

if your an open system (prussic, blakes, helical) then go with the 10mm but if your on a hitchclimber/closed system (VT, distel, etc) then go with the 8mm. hope that helps.......
