ashtray, i think that's the one of the best examples of proof-texting i've seen in a while

Fro,
I've climbed on the 9.5 infinity two different times and liked the rope. At first I questioned how it would catch/lower with the gri, but it did well(and it's a Mammut). Anyways, when you feel like sacking up...go out and get one of those 11.3mm ADVENTURE CABLES and hop on your next proj. or backcountry route.

I have had an Infinity for almost 2 years. Granted it has been cut, I still use it almost every weekend. It handles super well and I have never had a problem with it in a gri. It does not get dirty like a sterling and it has held its fair share of falls. Maxim ropes are also super nice. I know a lot of people that have recently switched to Maxim that are very happy.

I have been climbing on a 9.9 Maxim and love it to death, it's light and durable, and packs small for a 70m. Mammut is a sexy rope though, just not one so thin for every day cragging. A thicker cord is the way to go.

Between EDELWEISS, STERLING and BEAL the latter has served me the best. I have always been sketched about dropping the diameter below 10.0 mm but climbing recently with Shamis' 9.8 mm has changed my mind.

Tray you've been climbing for roughly 69 years, how can you not know how to buy a rope. you've probably climbed on every cord on the market never bringing yours to the cliff.

I´ve used several 9,5 mm Infinity for the last 4 years. They are great ropes. I just bought another one.

But I wouldn´t recommend the Infinity for working on routes in the Red. It will not last for very long.

For redpointing and on sights its great.

I have an Inifinty, which I thought would be my redpoint rope only, but as I used it more and liked its hand and characteristics, it's my everyday rope now. I'm a big guy (210 lbs), climb 2-3 times a week and my rope's lasted a little over a year. It's been cut a few times, but I use it for hangdogging and working routes too.

It catches just fine in a grigri, but it does disconcert my belayers when I pull it smoothly through the grigri and it doesn't catch; you really have to put a big impluse into the system for the rope to catch in a grigri.

My friend has this rope too and he loves it. Bottom line - buy it!
