You were right Carl, it was a SpLife with funky stitchingDepending on the age it probably isn't a Slaice.
(Which is handy as I can just re-apply the sticker now😄)

IndeedPretty work.
Cheers Burn!Pretty work.
thank you! i appreciate it.I'm not familiar with this rope. What are the characteristics and designed use?
Your whipping is superb. Nice whipping is an art that in not seen so much these days.
That is a good trick. With the Blue Moon, if I can recall correctly, every step was tight and especially final bury was very tough. I clipped the eye to my harness and was dropping my weight against it. With the Tachyon I was unable to even get the core re-inserted into the cover. I use the Nick Aria method of re-inserting the core first and then putting the cover into the core. So I was at the first step. I use Brian Toss wand. I have an arborist size one and a skinny shorter one for smaller lines. When I could not pull the core through with the normal size I tried again with the skinny one and broke the snare. (Anyone have any replacement dyneema?) I think my attachment of the core to the snare was too fat. Also i think last time I complained about the Blue Moon someone suggested a piano wire instead of the wand.Is it the final bury? You can clip a steel biner in it, and then clip a small sling to a hammer handle just under the head, and then snap it tight a few times and then milk it, and keep working it til it's good. That's how i set them, brian toss trick. By pulling like that it aligns the rope, so that way it'll have room to set, and the snapping motion hopefully overcomes the static friction of the strands. Slowly work up the force as it goes, i think he used a sledge to get the really tight ones.
Is it like throwline? Zingit and dynaglide are dyneema. I could send you some if it'll work.(Anyone have any replacement dyneema?)
