I use honey brothers Liros Ignite, works well with a hitch climber. it did tend to slip a bit when I first bought it but after a bit of work it was fine. its a nice rope! and it comes with a splice.

Thanks Guys,

 

Just put an order in with Honey Bros decided to go with Teufelberger Hi-Vee and got it spliced at both ends :) also picked up a new pinto pulley and a new liros eye to eye hitch cord. Happy days :)

Ooh, get you!

 

I've considered getting ropes spliced both ends (I'll inevitably nick the rope near the splice at some point), but worry that a new rope often needs the cover milking off the core, and if both ends were spliced before this was done the extra cover would have nowhere to go.

 

My current Blaze took over 3' of cover milked off the core!

I figured I would colour code each end and try to alternated which end I tie into and then the rope should were more evenly. Just a crazy idea I have going on

Think there'll be a problem with the milking if you have 2 splices on a mainline,

Won't it end up bunched up at on end,

 

As for 13 used to like the xtc fire very easy to see

But as others have said tacyon is 12.5 feels the same but much lighter, and has more strands so runs smoother all round
