The BlueWater Ropes Lightning Pro 9.7 mm is a lightweight for-the-diameter rope that handles well and is easy to clip. While we liked belaying and clipping with this rope, we had some durability concerns, as it was showing the most sheath wear by the end of testing. We also weren’t so happy when we took some falls on it. While the on-paper ratings for this rope look like it would provide a soft-catch, we took what felt like the hardest falls on this one. On the flip side, it did feel stretchy when top-roping, so it’s possible that it just didn’t have the same ability to re-stretch after a fall after some of the other ropes in this review. For a rope that gives a soft catch but is not too stretchy as a top rope, check out our Editors’ Choice winner, the Mammut Infinity
