Climbing Basics: Best Rope Material For Prusiks?

What is the best Rope material for making a prusik? Can we use Dyneema?

In this episode I go over some rope materials and their properties to heat. The most common materials in climbing are Nylon, Dyneema, and Aramid. But which one is best for a prusik, Prusik do alot of sliding this creates friction and so creates heat. So when picking one we want it to be grippy abrasion resistant and heat resistant. The best choice here is then the Aramid. However if we want something with a bit more shock resistance then we can get a product called a Jammy, which is a Aramid core and Nylon sheath. I hope you enjoyed this information and learned a thing or too!
