A. Al Benson of Fast Back Ropes suggests an XS Natural (if you prefer a four-strand) or a Grabber (if you prefer a three-strand). Both of these ropes have enough weight so you can easily feel the tip. As you progress and get more comfortable handling your rope you will probably end up with a lighter rope. Using a four-strand or three-strand rope is a personal preference that you will eventually figure out. Good luck!!
