Edelweiss Laser Arc Climbing Rope - 9.6mm

Looking for the elegant handling and durability of an Edelweiss rope but also need to shave off weight to send your project? The Laser Arc 9.6mm is the ultimate smooth-handling, lightweight solution. At 61g/m it isn't the lightest rope in its class but with the Edelweiss Perdur and EverDry coatings it is certainly one of the most durable. In tests, Perdur was shown to increase a rope's abrasion resistance by up to 33%, and when you're talking about an ultra-thin line like this, safety and durability should definitely be a concern. Edelweiss' Arc sheath weave scores additional safety points by creating two distinct patterns, one on each end of the rope, to make it easy for you and your belayer to identify the mid-point of the rope for lowering and to alternate tie-in ends. Comes in 60m and 70m lengths.

Bottom Line: We can't guarantee you'll send, but if you tie into the Laser Arc 9.6mm the odds are definitely in your favor.

Great Choice = Better Climbing

I spent 2 weeks researching which rope hit my climbing requirements. Yeah, Laser Arc 9.6 brings great handling where no mistakes are allowed during the drive. It is on charge for 2 months with everyday climbing and only shows good surprises.

Great Rope

By: Climbinskier (30)

This is a great rope. My favorite thing about the rope is the ARC (bi-pattern) sheath. There is no question about where the middle of the rope is. This is extremely useful when rapping multi-pitch routes. I have used this for sport and multi-pitch trad routes. So far it has caught about five or six big, sport lead falls with no problems. This rope is lightweight enough for long routes or redpoint attempts, but isn't so skinny you'd be scared to fall on it.
