Hanging rope isn't a bad idea if it is COMPLETELY dry!
If there's still some water in it in will all go down to the bottom of the hanging rope ... If you use it every weekend, no prob, if you don't use it for two months at all: big problem!

Why? It will dry in a week whether you use it or not.

I always just threw my backpacks on the floor of the closet and then had to pick through them to find the one I wanted, which was a pain. So one day I hung them on hangers and hung them up like clothes. The problem was now my WIFE saw exactly how many I had and she could not understand why I needed that many packs. When the gear is stored in a jumble it is hard to ascertain exactly how much gear there is. Since I got in trouble for that chaos rules and I spread it out throughout the house.

The trick with new gear is to unpack it as quickly as possible and then take it outside and rub it around in the dirt. When the wife asks about it: "What? That old thing? I've had that for a long time!"
This is so funny, I just had to hide a new rope in plastic last night. I've never had a rope in plastic and I don't want to open it yet (still have good ropes to use) so I hid it in the garage under some other gear..."WHY DON"T YOU PAY YOUR BILLS?!?!" shut up woman, get on my horse...

Of course, my wife caught on to that trick after a while (didn't believe that she hadn't noticed another pair of skis.) It came back to haunt me when I asked her about a new pair of shoes: "Oh, those old things..."
