The Curve 9.8 seems to lend itself well as a lead line for long multipitch routes, as well as trad and sport red-pointing. When using it for a top rope setting be mindful of the additional energy absorption and stretch during the starts of routes. However, the sheath construction should help protect the rope from some of the added abuse that comes with a day of TR-ing. The Curve offers great handling and knotting, and runs through gear like a dream, while not being a significant weight by the end of long pitches.
If you’re looking for a workhorse crag rope for whipping all over your projects for a few years, look no further. This rope will provide soft catches well into the future. It’s not the best choice for new climbers or people who primarily top-rope. At a mid-range price, you get the stretchy behavior of a skinny rope the in a thick, burly package – not a bad deal at all.
