Thanks, but that's not the same stuff. The Exped version has 3M reflective thread woven into it. The ones above are just hi viz, but not reflective.

How about this stuff??

I've done a quick ebay search, but it came up duff, do you have the trader name? I'll send a message off.

Have you seen the stuff Terra Nova use on their tents ? I've got some on my Saturn bivvy and it's good stuff. You can get if direct from TN but it's in a cleat set ...

I have seen the Exped stuff recently but I think it might have been that NZ store, I'll have a butchers though

Just checked my emails, they were called Campcraft, I think they have an ebay shop still

Still no joy, so i ordered the stuff from NZ! Amazingly, with the good exchange rate, it's only slightly more expensive than the terra nova stuff That said, I bet it'll take about a month to arrive though

 

[Trunks]

Well, that was fast! The stuff landed on the doormat today

I have to say that i am well chuffed with the quality of the rope. Strong & grippy, like you would want a guy rope to be. The 3M reflective thread lights up as soon as you flash a torch near it - great

 

[Shewie]

That was quick, might get some more ordered for my new Trailstar

 

[Trunks]

Yeah, i wish i'd ordered two now

It's probably because the official UK distributor don't carry it.

Trunks....

I got it from here, but now they're out of stock!

The best i can find is here:

If you fancy, i can order three packs & we'll split the postage etc?

Cheers Trunks.

On balance, I think I'll go for the Backpackinglight ones- it's for the family tent so the fluorescent ones with reflective strands seem a more sensible option. They come with cleats and are slightly cheaper I think too.

Cheers anyway

Dyneema is a bit overkill for that anyway, I'd think

Spotted this stuff tonight James if you want any more

It's not quite 2mm like the Exped stuff but it's not far off,

10m hanks for £4 ain't too bad

I'm gonna get a few of the different types and see what they're like.
