Twin/Half ropes

I have recently discovered that my personal favorite, the Mammut Genesis ropes are discontinued.   That leaves me curious, what are people using that doubles (no pun intended) as both a double and a twin?  I use them mostly as twins, clipping both ropes to each protection point.  What do you like about them?  What do you dislike?  I am going to be purshasing a set before spring hits here in northern Idaho.   Thanks in advance for any advice.

They are not so much discontinued, but evolved (and renamed)…Are you leery of the triple rated 8.7mm Mammut Alpine Sender for some reason?  

As an aside, I love Mammut, but their website sucks ass now in my opinion.  

Almost all double ropes on the market now are also twins.  If you like mammut ropes look at the 8mm Alpine ropes.

Thanks so much!  I love Mammut so will probably go with the Alpine sender or the 8mm Alpine dry ropes.

 The beal jokers are a nice triple rated rope. But if it’s just doubles your after, then I like the mammuts better.

Thank you.   Mostly twins, but ones that qualify as doubles for parties of 3, and long raps on really obscure trad climbs here in Idaho.

I got the mammut 7.5 Alpine sender and love them

I like mammut and find edelrid 7.9 to be in the same class. Durable with good handling. Some of the triple rated ropes are getting almost as light. 

The Mammut Genesis were/are awesome ropes. I am leery of triple rates ropes because typically they have a lower sheath % which makes them less durable. A couple partners and I did ~16 pitches of climbing this summer with one older Mammut 8.5 half rope and a new triple rated rope (I don't recall which manufacturer or model), the latter of which had significantly more wear by the end of our trip. 

Does Bluewater still make the Excellence double ropes? Those are on par with the older Mammuts.

Thanks for the heads up!  It looks like the Excellence ropes are still available, although the Bluewater website does not clarify if they are certified as twins as well.  

For dual rated twins/ half the sterling photons are the best , at7.8 mm and45% sheath it’s pretty good. For a triple rated rope the edelrid canary or swift protect are great, it just depends on the type of climbing you are doing.
