Long write up after a year with these guys

Excellent review and very informative. I too was Leary about Petzl ropes with the past drama they have had. Seems to be a thing of the past. I own a Volta and have nothing but good things to say and that cord.

great rope ! just don't use a Petzl Ti Bloc on it, scraped the sheath of one of mine

Been using a 50m Paso as my simulclimbing cord and loving it. Fold it in half and get some fast movement going. For a lot of older routes I climb, a 50m is sufficient for the raps I need to do and the length keeps me in good contact with my partner. Total game changer for a lot of the climbing I do now.

I purchased one to use as a rap line to accompany the single lead line for full length raps, it's very light and handled well. It hasn't seen a ton of use yet but I've been very happy with it so far, love the orange.
