As mentioned earlier, the Enduro rope comes
in two diameters to give a choice depending on the particular
aims of the climber, the first of theses is further subdivided
for greater choice:
Enduro / Super Enduro 9mm Ropes
A 9mm rope is still a great choice as an all-rounder and is almost
an essential choice as you move through the leading grades in
the UK and take advantage of the flexibility and safety of double
ropes. A 9mm is still for many the first rope purchased and it
gives the great balance of handling and durability which many
are looking for. There are two choices in the 9mm:
Enduro 9mm Non Dry -
Features: USP, BCC, DCC, MM
Although this rope features the same USP construction as the other
Enduros, we have made it better value by leaving out the costly
Super Dry treatment. Effectively it has been designed for the
all round cragger who is generally not going out in winter or
intending to be caught in the most miserable conditions. However,
as noted in the features section, the core of the rope is still
treated and will stop total saturation if caught in a downpour.
To make a perfect pair, this rope comes in a
strong Red / Blue combination for easy identification at the crag
and so that the two names do not sound similar when shouted in
the wind – an important factor when sat in the ‘Pass
while your mate struggles upwards in a bloody hoolie! These are
a great starter choice in the double rope category, their price
and performance combined with the extra ‘Enduro’ longevity,
make them excellent value for money and a super-reliable product.
