Rope
I am looking to buy a new rope for canyoneering. Anyone have any advice on what type/brand of rope to buy and the best place to get it.
Thanks

The best value are probably tom's ropes.

my philosophy is - if they sell it for what i want to use it for, its fine. i have had pmi ropes teh last 3 years. a caver i know recommended them and they were the cheapest so there i went. i wash them as needed and inspect for wear and they have been fine. brands and names don't mean anything in the end is my honest opinion, other than personal preferences based on whatever reasons. w/ the canyoneering ropes something that sheds water well is a big plus, and there are plenty of brands to choose from.

my only petty comment i have about your ropes Tom, is that there is no ORANGE color choice...
ORANGE ropes just look so great in photos
besides that, man they are really nice!

Noob depends on your opinion. Noob here as far as posts. I have been lurking for a while and one of your fine members convinced me to get an account and contribute.
O.K. the commercial was a lame first post. It was a post I noticed today and thought I would try to save the guy a few bucks if he wants his ropes now. We all know ropes ain't cheep and to save a few bucks on something that will need to be replaced sometime might do a person good.
I will try to contribute something more beneficial to the group from now on. That is if I am welcome to play along.Jared Hillhouse
