Send string.
Bought the 80mm. Light weight and looks amazing. Didn’t feel the drag off the road while climbing. It was also silky smooth clipping. I want a 60mm for the crag days now.

Awesome Climbing Rope
The rope is lightweight and easily packable. Great for shorter climbs. Although, not for its intended use, I used it for smaller drops while canyoneering and it did great.

Excellent alpine rope
This rope exceeded expectations. The middle mark is extremely easy to recognize. The colour is even more vibrant in real life than the pictures. Rope management was a breeze, light weight while still being durable. Overall very pleased with the product.

Great light weight rope!
Very light weight for a single rope. The 40m is perfect for simul climbing and alpine adventures.

Amazing Gym Rope
I needed a gym rope since I’ve been doing double duty with my outdoor climbing rope, and 70m is just too much rope for a Texas gym. As always, the quality of the rope is amazing, and the color is VIBRANT. Absolutely in love with this gorgeous addition to my kit.

Light, handles well but not that durable
This rope is ideal for long approaches and days at the crag. It feels nice in the hand and is smooth to feed out slack. However, it doesn’t seem to be super durable and shows signs of wear after only a few uses. I think this is to be expected with this thin rope. A slight compromise choosing lighter weight over longer lasting rope.
