Features
- Multipurpose rope for multi-pitch climbing and mountaineering:

- Durable and easy to grip:
- Excellent balance of diameter, weight, and bulk
- 40-carrier grip for better control
- Duratec Dry treatment extends the life of the rope
- UltraSonic Finish: the core and sheath are bonded together at the rope ends by an ultrasonic process, which provides greater durability and helps avoid frayed ends
- Convenient:
- Middle Mark: indicates the middle of the rope to facilitate maneuvers
- EverFlex treatment: specific thermal treatment stabilizes core strands and improves consistency, providing excellent grip and consistent handling over time
- ClimbReady Coil: special coil makes the rope ready to use, helps avoid initial uncoiling mistakes, and increases longevity
