Does not taper easily
I am a novice when it comes to tapering lines and splicing. I ordered the 8mm, and went to taper to make a continuous spinnaker sheet. The core appeared to be about 2mm dyneema and I can't taper it with such a larger cover. It seems like very nice rope but not for my purposes. Description of "easily tapered" does not seem accurate.
