Why We Like The Icon Double Dry Climbing Rope
Endowed with a tight braid and an extra thick sheath, the BlueWater Icon Double Dry 9.1mm Climbing Rope brings a new level of durability to the world of ultra-skinny redpoint cords. As a result of seeking lower weights and smaller diameters, skinny singles have traditionally been prone to short lifespans. Thanks to the Icon's 35% sheath mass, this rope can provide the featherlight performance serious sport climbers need with reduced drag, increased abrasion resistance, and a longer lifespan.

Great rope

- Size Bought:
- 80m
This is an all around great rope that I climbed several hundred pitches w/ over the course of 2 years. I never really had to break it in and it never got too kinked up despite how much I used it. Durability is fine, obviously it matters what you're climbing. Any rope can get core shot it's first day out if you're not careful. Highly recommend it. I only retired it a few weeks ago, lasted a long ass time.
