Raw climb rate isn't that relevant there -- the way you make a suborbital hop is by turning, and you don't actually need any thrust to make the hop (though you have to have somehow reached sufficient velocity, which requires thrust unless you're skipping as part of atmospheric skimming or re-entry).
