Highline is perfectly safe in my opinion. We've been using it in Germany Valley without incident and I know of at least one U. S. project in Mexico that uses it. The only complaint I've heard is that sometimes the sheath slips a little and bunches up, but the same thing can happen with PMI. All rope should be washed and dried before use, which preshrinks it and also tightens the sheath. I just bought five 600-foot spools of Highline on a different deal.

Highline is "ex-PMI" for good reasons. You shouldn't be pimping for 'em, Mark.
