EZBend is too fragile!!
Review by: ml_nelson, 2011-05-14
I've had this rope for 2 years now. The sheath is unacceptably fragile. My partner has a Bluewater rope & we use them interchangeably. The Bluewater looks near new, the EZBend if probably though 50% of its life.
The EZBend has only one advantage... it takes & hols knots much better that the still rope. BUT, the life is way to short. STAY AWAY!!!

I have about 200' of this, by the foot buy. It's nice and strong, and rather abrasion resistant. I have never broken a piece, and I think i would have if i was going to, because I used this in a tyrolean traverse over a gorge.
The only downside is that it's pretty stiff (i don't know if mine is EZ bend) and when i use it for fixed line applications, it doesn't handle great, but passably, in rappell/belay devices.
