Hello everyone!

Can anyone give me some information about the brand and material of this rope?  
I had it in a drawer mixed with other ropes, and I was surprised by how extremely soft it felt on my fingers. I loved it!

(It’s hard to recognize a rope from photos, but maybe some of you will recognize it:)

Thanks and best regards, everyone!

Wow, you’ve got it: those are the ones!  
(I remember the bag and the name now that I see your photo:)  
I was surprised they were made of nylon; I thought nylon was rough and harder to the touch.  
Thanks so much for helping me identify it;)

These string just last, I had one on a Grail for the longest time years ago.

They are very soft to the touch and are actually surprisingly wear-resistant 🚫🐛

100% Nylon can be very soft to the touch. Zipline ZS Air is my current go to and when Badwolf was around, their Goldilocks was extremely soft (almost too soft).

Give ZS Air a go, you’ll fall in love.

Thank you for the advice, I will try them as soon as I can get some. I am fascinated by the texture and fluidity in the play of this type of 100% nylon strings.
