Don't go too thin. I use a different version of the 1.7mm line as a throwline for arborist work and it will easily cut the crap out of you if pulling hard on it bare handed. |

The common hollow braid spliceable dyneema ropes used in sailing are not that great for climbing, its too easy to open up the rope, catch a single strand, etc... A tighter weave that can't easily open up is better suited to climbing use. |

I have Lots of tech12 and it come in handy all the time in my professional rigging world. |

Maybe it would work for the Zed cord on a 2:1 big wall hauling rig. Does it play nice with pulleys? |

Its extremely useful in rigging. Highliners often use the stuff to build anchors and make connectors. Sometimes they're used to backup lines. Not much use in climbing that I can think of however. |
