I am having trouble finding it. Anyone know of a good alternative. I use sterling canyon c-iv but it’s to stuff for what I want it for. Looking for something more similar to oplux. Anyone to any ideas. Prefer to be about 8mm
 
What is it about OpLux that you don’t like?
Probably lack of availability.

I ordered this back in August and I find it to be a great alternative if not better:
Teufelberger Resc Tech 8mm
 
I don't know if I'm saying the name correctly but it's fun to say....

I've been reluctant to get any of the fancy rope but I'm trying to have 2 complete saddle hunt get ups and since my rappel stuff was in my other gear I had to climb down the old fashion way last hunt and that's no fun.....

Edit:...I would like to buy toooo- fluuuu- bergeraaaa

Yeah same weight and 1,100 lbs more MBS. Wonder if there are any downsides?
 
See my earlier post comparing the Teufelberger Rescue Tech to the Sterling Oplux:
