8mm Ph.D. Racer, White/Red (6,800 lb)

Ph.D. Racer poly over Spectra S1000 line performs differently from any rope you have used before.
It feels like fuzzy polyester line, but performs like 100% Spectra®.
Secure grip in your hands and on winch surfaces provides safe and deliberate handling, yet it glides through blocks with virtually no stretch.

The key to this 12-strand single-braid’s superior combination of performance, handling, and strength is its unique base-strand construction.
Super-strong Spectra S1000 fibers are pre-stretched, bundled, and then encapsulated in sleeves of Yale iGrip.
The result is a line that comfortably grips in your hands, making sheets easier to grab, hold, adjust, and control.

No more wrestling with hard, wiry ropes.
It also glides through blocks faster and more smoothly for more effective trimming, tacking, and gybing.

• Grips winch surfaces securely, so you can use fewer wraps to control loads more easily
• Releases more smoothly and minimizes slipping, catching, and stuttering
• Grips and holds highly loaded knots and hitches.
• Glides around shrouds and other high-friction areas more easily than standard sheets
• Enables much smoother A-sail gybes
• Glides when released without kinking
• Splices quickly and easily
• Sold by the foot
