The longer the better as far as I am concerned. A 60 or 70m rope is going to last you much longer than a 50m rope. After chopping the dead sections off each end a 50m rope fast becomes worryingly short for many routes in the Blueys, although there is always the Glen or Nowra.

I usually go for something between 10 and 10.5. I want it to be able to handle being flogged to death as I tend to do lots of projecting where are thinner rope just wouldn't last.
