Actually, experience shows how these ropes are the best choices:
New England Maxim "Apex", Single, Green/Yellow
10.2 mm,
"STD-DRY" dry core, non-dry sheath
12 falls, 70.0 gm/m, impact 9.4 kN, static elongation 4.8%, dynamic elongation 29%
excellent feel, low friction for Rockies limestone.
Mammut half-rope for ice:
8.5 mm, dry for ice
colors: blue or orange
"The high sheath proportion and tight weave make the Genesis a very durable half rope."
"Each yarn is Teflon-coated to reduce friction and fully utilize each fibre when loaded, for a higher strength-to-weight ratio."
"Sheath and core are both dry-treated to protect from moisture and dirt."
Static cord for cordalette:
7mm
