Re: What's the best rope?

And you would be wrong. Please read the whole rule. Assuming the linked rope would not extend up more than 12 inches from the point it is held is should be deemed legal. Glass is certainly non-metallic, and "fiber" can really mean anything.


IO4
D. consist entirely of flexible, non-metallic fibers twisted, tied, woven, or braided together except for the last 4 in. (~10 cm) of each end which may be whipped, fused, covered in heat shrink or tape, or dipped in a coating material to prevent fraying.

Blue note "Flexible means that if the ROPE is held at any point, it should not extend more than 12” above the point where it is held. ROPES are meant to be pulled, not pushed."
