Nice one man! I climb on ocean poly 10mm and would really like an in depth tutorial for splicing that rope Any chance you have that one on your agenda?
Now I do. The quick tip would be that it can be spliced like a standard double braid with one change. Since ocean poly has a blended cover of polyester and technora or vectran/Kevlar whatever you want to call it, I remove those tan strands when I’m doing the cover taper to eliminate those slippery strands and be left with more standard poly on poly friction. A couple choice friction cords can be spliced like this, but most of the others are class 2 fibers so they have to be more carefully spliced.
You gotta try the focus from wesspur
It's sane rope but awesome color
