Edelweiss Sharp ARC Climbing Rope - 10.5mm

Edelweiss Sharp ARC Climbing Rope - 10.5mm description

The special construction of the Edelweiss Sharp ARC 10.5mm Climbing Rope allows it to pass UIAA sharp-edge test falls which cut most ropes like a shoelace. This rope should definitely be tied to your harness if you lob for a big whipper on sharp rock. In addition to this incredibly important design feature, the Sharp ARC Rope also includes a bi-color pattern sheath to help you quickly identify the middle of the rope. This saves tons of time in rappelling situations, It also lets you know when your climbing partner has reached the half-way point and can still lower safely to the ground.

Bottom Line: Make your day on the rock safer by climbing with the Edelweiss Sharp ARC Climbing Rope.

This rope just went up the Pacific Ocean Wall on EL Cap. Terrific rope. If I were a teacher and this rope was in my class, I'd pin a note to the rope's shirt for his mother that says "Dear Mrs. Rope, Rope is a pleasure to have in class. He holds a knot well and since he is 70 meters long, he can link whatever pitches you need to." This rope is the best on the market for a good reason. Oh, and I don't agree that this rope feels like a cable. It is supple and tying knots with this sucka is quite delightful.

This rope has seen several walls and tons of toproping, I have jugged on it hauled with it and it shows only a little wear( some very very minor fraying onthe sheath) yes it feels like a cable in your hand but this baby wears better than steel and supprisingly enough it holds knots well and the catch for big whippers is still soft.Having tried several different ropes I wish I could have gotten over myself(It took along time for me to buy this rope because ofthe feel)I could have saved a ton of money I wasted on the other ropes purchased.All in all this IS the rope to have on any climb ( walls or long trad)I swear I climb five grades higher knowing ths rope has my back..
