Edelweiss Onsight Arc Climbing Rope - 9.9mm

Item #EDL0002 | 0 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Smooth and durable

By Ranked #542 - Big Wall Climbing October 17, 2009

I got this rope at the same time my friend got the Petzl Nomad rope. We both climb 2-3 times a week. 5 months later people still ask me if my rope is new. Conversely, my buddy gets teased that his rope looks like it was fed through a wood chipper. I also find it much easier to undo my f8 knot after taking falls on this rope. This rope handles and feeds very smoothly. I am extremely pleased with this rope and plan on buying the same one again when this one finally wears out. It is a pretty rope too so it will make a nice rug when that day comes.

I've been debating for over a week between these two specific ropes. Thanks for the great review. I think you've finally helped me settle the debate.
