Our new Slyther is a high-tech rope that is both durable, light, and slinky / smooth; and extracts the maximum possible cash from your wallet… (almost, there are more expensive ropes). 75% Technora Sheath (+25% polyester), Dyneema core. It is very light, 41.71 grams per meter, though not quite the lightest real rope available. Please read the hangtag, image #2.

Initially only available by direct sales, and only in 120’, 200’ and 300’ lengths - and full spools. There might be Odd Cuts from time to time. I added a 15’ length if people want to have it in hand before buying (limit, 1 x 15’ piece per customer). We can TRY to do something else if you ask for it.

(The actual rope lengths are 126, 210, and 315' to allow for 5% shrinkage. NOTE: Odd Cuts are the actual length…)

I highly suggest doing 3 wet/dry cycles before using the rope if you can. It improves the hand of the rope to a small degree. In my test of this, the rope shrank by 4% with the 3 cycles.

2 lb 12.8 oz per 100 feet == 5 lb 9.6 oz per 200 feet. === 8 lb 6.4 oz per 300 feet.

I have had problems Toggling (FiddleStick/SmoothOperator) with the Slyther as the knot overtightens. Be careful with this, and maybe position the stick a bit further out. Definitely untie and retie the knot before going last. Anticipate having to pull harder than usual.

The hangtag has many warnings about it being super-fast… which apply when the rope is brand new, but it breaks in quickly and becomes similar in friction to the Canyon Fire, though completely opposite in hand. I still don’t think third hands will work well with this rope even when broken in, but then I don’t like third hands in general. So you are on your own, as you always are.
