If you can't tell the difference between a static and a dynamic rope you shouldn't be buying a rope... you should go pay someone to teach you about climbing and then come back to this purchase. There are too many people out there that don't know what they are doing out at the cliff.. please don't be one of them.

The dynamic single ropes will have a number 1 with a circle around it on the end tag.

Static ropes are way cheaper and usually monochromatic. But be damn sure you now what you're buying. Getting a dynamic rope when you wanted a static one is annoying, the other way around could kill you.A dynamic rope is stretchy and help soften a fall, a static rope is well static and has no give to it.The simple answer to tell them apart is check the tag on the rope before buying it. If it is a static rope it will say it on the tag. If you have an old rope and can't tell the difference then its time to buy a new rope...
