Climbers seem to get overly heated up when talking about things like using the rope to make our anchors or using slings, runners, or cords. Well, like most things, there are tradeoffs. Here's one set of those tradeoffs, and the full video goes deeper into several others.
Prominant ropes in this video include:
the yellow rope - Mammut Core Protect 9.5mm
the green rope - Beal Opera 8.5mm
the organge rope - Petzl Volta Guide
the two rope (half rope) system - Beal Gully
