I bought this rope with ice climbing in mind. The 60 meter version gave me the extra length I've always wanted, without having to haul up the extra weight of a standard 10.5. I plan to use this on some rock where I'm pushing my max and weight is a factor. Its still a new rope, but so far the durability looks pretty good. It breaks in nicely, and isn't too stiff. All in all this is a pretty nice rope.

PMI 10.5 60m dry- Beat the hell out of it, but it lasted quite a while.

Mine is also the bi-color dry version. I liked the rope for the light weight. I havent taken a leader fall on it yet (does that mean I am not climbing hard enough?). I really bought this rope for ice climbing, but like it so much I can't help using it on rock too. A little pricy but well worth it.

I have the dry coated, bi-color version of this rope. I got a great deal from Rei, and am extremely happy with the rope. It is quite a bit more stretchy than the Black diamond I've used, but it is really light and seems to be pretty durable. Good rope.
