Review Summary
Customer Images
Here's what customers have to say
The product reviews are mixed. While some found the cord useful for certain applications, many customers reported that the cord is extremely stiff and difficult to work with. The stiffness makes it challenging to coil, uncoil, and handle the cord, and several reviewers described it as "comically stiff" and "like steel wire". Some noted the cord may become more flexible over time, but the overall consensus is that the stiffness is a significant drawback that detracts from the product's usability.

Awful rappel cord
I like BD climbing ropes. However, this static rope is just bad. It is stiff as metal cable, hard to coil, does not pack well, a pain to uncoil, and you better wear belay gloves when you rappel or you will burn your finger. I'd go back to the drawing board.

Slightly too stiff
I was pumped for this tag line and then upon arrival realized how stiff it was. This made it difficult to pack and handle. Hoping another tagline is created that is more pliable and less rigid.

6. 0 static accessory cord
This cord is extremely stiff and holds memory. It's almost impossible to tie a knot of any configuration in it. But it is oddly satisfying to mess with it's definitely got a place and worthy of purchase.

Super light small tag line!!
I love this tag line! It's not too big or too heavy to carry. Fits perfectly with a 60m rope while rappelling due to elasticity.

Excellent for Mountaineering and Hauling
This 6.0mm accessory cord has worked perfectly for mountaineering prussiks. It also handles very well. I cut off a bit for hauling and it works nicely in this role as well. I highly recommend.

Trusted cord
Love the cord and quality. We used this to make a few 3 m cordage ropes for utility for my wife and kids.

Super Stiff
I'm intending to use this as a cordelette. It is incredibly stiff out of the package. I've run it loaded through a belay device two or three times to a little loosening up, but it's still too stiff to want to use outdoors.

Perfect line
I bought this rope for tag lining my drill up mostly, but have been using it to pull line on my rappels and it is perfect!!! Super light, and stowes away perfect in a bullet pack. No more climbing with a back Pack coil just to double rope rappel a route. This totally fixed my issues!!
