    550 FIREcord Kickstarter

    Apologies if this as already been shared. Just came across it this morning, haven't seen anything like it before and thought it was share worthy. I am not affiliated or representing this company or product. Just caught my interest.

    I would think that it would not Have the same rating as the inner strands have been removed and they each play into the strength. I think I may have read this on the site as well.

    Hahahaha I can only imagine a disaster where someone uses this to make an emergency prussik to rappel down a cliff or something.... and all of a sudden the rope combusts due to friction.

    Climb safely people. Don't use [this] paracord [for climbing].
