hey there
I am new also to this and I want to practice my knots and climbing, so I am goingto buy some rope. I want to know why the difference. I mean 3 strand, 12 strand, 16 strand? I see the mecahnical differences ( ie load ratings) but what is the standard that people use if there is one. I am want to buy the best I can, I am going to be the one hanging from it. but can some one or somebodies give me some pointers on chosing a rope.
thank you
mike
