It’s never been easier to tie and hold a knot with a static line. The ultra-smooth 48 strand sheath and nylon makes for a flexible rope.

What Arborists Think

β€œThe rope feels incredibly supple in your hand. We have a lot of rough-bark trees here in Colorado and after I broke it in and it’s a bit more picked out, it actually feels even better in my preferred SRS climbing devices”

  • Ian Johnson, 7+ years of climbing experience

β€œFeels great in the hands, knots well and low elongation.”

  • Chris Alexander, 10+ years of climbing experience

β€œDaily use for climbers lifeline. Minimal stretch helped make ascending the tree easier. Smooth sheath made natural crotch rigging and using devices to ascend/descend much more pleasant”

  • Nicholas Craft, 5+ years of climbing experience
