Pretty much every roca free I've seen goes horribly soft, almost ends up like a fleecy jumper to handle. Used to make it awkward when I worked at an intertrek (who import roca) shop, trying to subtlely guide customers away from the free. For the dollars, there are plenty of ropes I'd buy before the free.
The tasmania's get pretty universal rave reviews, my halves are tasmania's but probably only have 50 pitches of climbing on them since new so I reserve comment. Did buy two tasmania single's while I was qut's quartermaster but only one is in use and its only been in use for two weeks, so again, to early to say much.
