Which rope to buy - again 23-Oct-2008 At 11:10:01 AM glebechris

Need to get my hands on a rope pretty quick. From what I can tell I can get Mammut from pinnacle sports or cruise down to Kent Street and get Mammut or Beal.

Thinking around 10 or 10.2. Mostly do gym or single pitch sport and trad. Trying to do more multipitch. Weight not a major issue (or I'd just diet!). Use a Reverso3 so I thought around the 10mm would be a good compromise to give me reasonable durability. I am a dry weather climber so dry coating does seem worth the expense unless there is another reason.

Any suggestions? How does the Beal Flyer 10.2 stack up.Or the Beal Edlinger II which seems so much cheaper! There's also Roca ropes at Mountain Equipment - the Fanatic 10mm.

In the Mammut there is the Galaxy10mm - but that talks about sport and alpine climbing so not sure if it is appropriate.

Or what else would I be able to lay my hands on quite quickly.

Cheers
