Ok... so he should buy a new rope and invest in nylon?
Or did I miss something?

Now is the Dow Jones or my mutual fund valuated on the age of the rope I use? The original question was lost in the spew of the spray lords on commision. Is there not Pm for this banter that no one gets or needs.
Back to the question,
climb every week replace your rope annually
climb every other week replace your rope bi-annually
climb ocasionally replace your rope every three years.

In reply to: Discuss ?? That's for those who don't. I'm talking about $100k each in the futures markets for 6 months. Winner take all. Doesn't the one who's challenged get to choose the weapons :wink:
Nice choice of weapons. You are aware, I assume, that your challenger co-founded a stock exchange. Good luck.

Use the rope to make a Bachar ladder.
Then get strong.

I'd lead climb on that rope, my choice. I'd certainly use it for Top Roping.
And I buy a new rope every year because they are so cheap.

I have two ropes that were stored for 10 years and use them almost every weekend. You have to keep in mind that to protect their own a$$e$, when companies are determining the "recommended" life span of a product, it is normally the half-life that they will establish as the life expectancy.
This gives them a huge safety margin from law suites. So if they 10 years, it's more then likely 20.
These ropes of mine are 9ml. I top rope with them, and use them both leading on ice. I have other (new) ropes, but certainly do not worry about using these as I do. it is nice to have an old rope of 2 for top roping, it save the wear and tear on your lead rope(s)
my 2 cents

In reply to: In reply to: curt wrote: In reply to: Hahahahahaha. Too bad we will never hear back from you. Curt, did you and Jay go to the same school to learn how to be As_hole Mods. Apparently you both love dishing it out but can't take it yourselves. I guess you guys were absent from that class. :wink: Calling me out, boy that's real grownup. Trouncing you at climbing would be too easy. How about ETF's or Treasury Futures at 20 paces ? :lol: Neither Jay or I are mods here. I am sure you can't climb worth s---. If you want to discuss financial topics, including futures valuations, the total transaction cost of equity trades, including opportunity cost, market impact, bid-ask spread and commissions, let 'er rip. I co-founded an automated stock exchange designed to remove temporal illiquidity from the market, through the implementation of single price auctions. What have you done in the financial arena that really matters? Curt
HEAVY SHIT WE GOT HERE! I love it long time.
