Decent rope to abuse for the money. More stretch than I'm used to with other ropes. OK for rappelling long as you get used to the sponginess.
Eastern Mountain Sports Response:Spongy eh? We’re shocked to hear your Sterling Static line has ‘too much stretch’ in it. While it is impossible for any rope to be completely stretch free…the Sterling Static Line has less than 3% overall elasticity which should translate into very little/if any give. We’re confident you won’t find a rope with less stretch on the market…this of course excludes steel cable. Keep in mind...Our first priority is your complete satisfaction with your Eastern Mountain Sports® purchase.

Great product for rapelling!!! Very stong rope. Dosn't flex much which is great for rappelling however it isn't good for free climbing do to the streching factor. I definatly feel safe at the end of this rope!
