What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I’ve been climbing on the Lightning Pro 9.7 for seasons—it’s the sweet spot between weight, durability, and handling. Feeds great through a belay device, catches soft, and doesn’t get kinked up after repeated use. Solid choice for projecting or long days at the crag."
Whether we’re projecting routes or logging mileage on weekend trips, the BlueWater Lightning Pro 9.7mm Rope delivers reliable performance with a smooth feel. Built for versatile use across sport and trad disciplines, it offers the ideal balance of light weight and long-term durability.
With a tightly braided sheath that resists fuzz and fray, the Lightning Pro holds up to repeated use, while its supple handling makes belays and clips feel intuitive and secure. It’s certified as a single rope, making it easy to grab-and-go for a range of climbing objectives. Whether we’re pushing grades or guiding partners, this rope earns its place on our rack.

Perfect
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
- Size Bought:
- 70m
I climb 5-6 days a week as a trad climber, sport climber, and I do multi pitch routes often. This rope is easy to see, it doesn’t fray quickly, and its a good mix of light and durable. I feel confident whipping on this rope at the local crag as well as hauling it up 500 feet. I will be buying this rope again.
