Very inspired by Tabary's style of routine when I first saw it 5 years ago. However having already incorporated those moves, I am desperately looking for new thinkers. Does anyone have any suggestions?
A lot of the stuff I have gone through is more of the same (single false knots, professors nightmare'ish, cut n restored, etc). I'm really looking for some out of the box thinking
It feels like this question is so much easier to answer in cards and coins.

Why not look at the old stuff? Sands or more modern Daryl's routine.
Re: creative modern rope magic
Yes, I agree. I need to revisit the classics and see if I missed something

You might want to take a look at the use of color ropes in a routine like Wiz Kid Qua-Fiki's Blendo Ropes from The Wizards' Journal #16 ( http://magicnook.com/WIZj16/WIZ16-06Ble ... uaFiki.htm ).

Some years ago Brian Glover and Walt Lees were judging a magic competition, the third judge being a layperson - a lady.
One of the acts did Fibre Optics very well and with a good presentation, another did the Victor Rope routine well but with a bland presentation.
When discussing the acts, Brian and Walt were giving high marks to the former but the lady objected. She said, "He didn't really cut the rope as he used his fingers as a scissors, the other really cut the rope."
