[QUOTE="Dadatwins, post: 677299, member: 4223"] The least invasive and damaging would be the colored stitching. I would not climb and place my life at risk on any lifeline that had been modified by adding a heated shrink wrap to the center of the span. Beside possibly damaging the fiber during the initial process, as the rope is passed over limbs under tension during climbing the wrap will not bend normaly at that spot possibly causing further damage. Just my opinion based on using climbing rope for 20+ years and treating my lifeline as, well my life depends on it. [/QUOTE]
