I have skimmed this post and I have yet to see anyone address the fact that repelling with rope this thin is VERY difficult. I have been repeling/climbing for years and I would have a hard time getting my hands aournd 3 or 5 mil rope. This gear is nice, but all I see a bloody line in my hand after the rop has cut through my glove!!

Just my two cents.
