Petzl Nomad 9.8mm Climbing Rope

Item #PTZ0256 | 40 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Nomad

By Backcountry.com Sponsored Athlete Ranked #67 - Big Wall Climbing April 30, 2009

I have about 40 days of climbing on this rope, all types: sport, trad, alpine. The durability seems great. This is the best feeling brand new rope I have ever felt. Usually it takes 10 days or so for a rope to break in to the point where I like it's suppleness, this rope felt perfect brand new and still has not lost it's great feel.

4/5 for the stiffness? Other than that, sounds like a 6 star review to me.

Hey Andy, you give the rope four out of five stars but your review makes it sound like a perfect rope. What does it lack to not get five stars? Thanks.

I was so happy with my first nomad I just bought another. Now I have the nomad in 60 and 70 meters. Love this rope.
