Mammut Infinity Climbing Rope - 9.5mm
Available Colors / Styles
Detail Views
If you want a light line but don't want to sacrifice durability, get yourself the 9.5mm Mammut Infinity. This rope weighs a scant 58g/m, making it a perfect pick for alpine routes and high-end sport climbs where every ounce really makes a difference. Unlike other ropes, the Infinity uses Mammut's Teflon coating process which covers each fiber individually to reduce internal friction and increase the line's life span.
Bottom Line: Not all light ropes wear out quickly.
Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

Bowlines are designed in such a way that they don't over tighten when weighted.

WHEN TIEING INTO HARNESS I USE A BOWLINE KNOT WITH A YOSEMITE LOCK WITH A SLIGHT VARIATION. BEFORE PUTTING THE TAIL THRU THE FIRST LOOP I WRAP IT AROUND THE HARNESS LOOP THEN UP THRU THE FIRST LOOP FINISHING WITH A DOUBLE SQARE KNOT. THIS IS FAST AND SECURE. IS THERE ANOTHER KNOT AS SECURE?

Most people use a follow-through figure eight knot with a hitch as a backup.

Lightweight
By: James Cooper
April 11, 2011
Over the past year, this rope has taken on sport, trad, and ice climbing in stride. Lots of positive comments heard from friends with gear envy at the crags, especially about the duodess feature, and the lightweight feel that is easy on the hands (soft). The 9.5mm diameter glides nicely through belay devices and works knots with ease. Smaller diameter rope also means less fatigue on the hike to the climb and more space in your pack. Overall, a great quality rope.
Excellent

This is a great rope. Nice hand, very durable, and very light. This is my go-to rope for everything except heavy top-roping.

Never used a 9.5mm rope before. Is it too thin to use with an ATC for rapping and belaying (especially with the teflon coating)?
By: anderschen378902

No, not too thin for an ATC (though it will make your heart pound the first couple times you use it). With any purchase, I'd say to test the gear out at home before you go outside with it so there aren't any surprises when you really need it. On that note, I don't use my 9.5 as much because I'm climbing mostly on sharp granite on moderate trad routes, which leads to a lot of abrasion. I'm happier with my 9.8 or even a 10.2, especially if it's getting used A LOT. Save this guy for redpointing and hard sport routes!
Happy trails!

Supple. Ties very nicely. Seems to be holding up to sport and trad thrashing so far.

Can this rope be used for top ropping as well? Looking for a Mammut rope that I can lead the route to set up a top rope for my wife to climb?
By: cf14759340

Yes, it's fine for top rope. Also check Blue Water Lightning Pro 9.7, just a little heavier, but you save some coin and it's a stellar rope.

got this out for the first time for some sport climbing the other week and I love it so far. Great feel and lightweight for a 9.5. Feeds well with a reverso 3 or cinch.
Any chance you'll get the 70m duodess in stock?

The dope rope
By: Peter Kamitses
March 16, 2010
This rope is like a bullet proof turbo charged jacked up 4WD limousine..... Nearly indestructible, light enough to let you really go for it on long piches, versatile enough to go anywhere from big walls to short vicious sport climbs....and all the while giving you a luxurious ride. I beat the bejezzus outta the infinity all year long and these ropes just don't want to be retired.... While sport climbing and logging countless handogging sessions eventually lead me to trim the ends off....the middle always remains looking brand new...In short, the perfect balance of lightweight combined with Mammuts ridiculously good durability make this my favorite rope.

Is it worth paying an extra $50 for the duo-dess? Both 70m Duo-dess
Is it worth paying an extra $50 for the duo-dess? Both 70m Duo-dess and SuperDry are Dry treated, and the only seemingly big difference is that the duo-dess makes the mid point easier to find. Any insight?
By: Summitboarder
March 6, 2011
Absolutely! The bipattern makes it easier to see the middle but also easier to tell how much rope is left, which end is on top, makes rope management...whether on the ground or at a hanging belay, much easier. Well work the extra 50 bucks!

Put your rope on a diet
By: Bob Gray

This ropes is great for most applications especially if you're looking to save a little weight. You get a little more rope stretch than thicker ropes, but that's to be expected. Watch out using it in auto locking belay devices as the smaller diameter is not recommended by some manufacturers (still works great in my gri-gri). Great for alpine outings!
Got this for my first rope, so I have nothing specific to compare
Got this for my first rope, so I have nothing specific to compare it too. It seems to kink/twist a fair amount. Is there a break-in period? Or is it user error?
By: Tyler Greene
September 24, 2010
So, to answer my own question, there did seem to be a break in period. After about 5-10 days of light use, the rope softened up noticeably. Now, aside from munter hitches and sloppy coiling, it's very smooth.
By: Tyler Greene

It depends how you're using the rope. Lowering off anchors can induce a fair bit of twist. Try rappelling off it a few times, you can knot the ends, but don't knot them together. That seems to get a lot of the kinks out of ropes.

A great rope for lead climbing. I love how smooth it feeds through my belay device. Love the bi-pattern design making it easy to find the middle for a safe rappel.
I have no doubt I could give this rope five stars after longer use.
BTW, the tags that came with the Blue-Duodess indicates it is dry-treated, which is probably why it feeds so nicely.
Mammut makes their infinity climbing rope in an 80m lenght. Backcountry
Mammut makes their infinity climbing rope in an 80m lenght. Backcountry does not offer this as a purchasing option, they only show the 60m and 70m ropes. Is there any way that backcountry can get a hold of the 80m rope for me to buy
By: Ted Spence
September 22, 2010
Ted,
I would suggest opening a live chat window with a service rep and suggesting it. In the meantime the 80m rope can be found here:

we used this rope to do some rappelling, it is very durable, the rock had little affect on the sheath, good stuff!
So is the orange color the only one with the superdry treatment?
So is the orange color the only one with the superdry treatment? It says dry next to the orange option, but not the blue.
By: Nicole Woltersdorf
February 17, 2010
I believe that the blue has the superdry treatment as well. The Mammut website shows it as having the superdry too. The only difference between the blue and the orange colors is that the blue has the duodess where the pattern of the rope changes at the halfway mark.
