A top of the range rope at a bargain price. This rope is treated with Edelrid's heat/abrasion resistant covering, as well as their double dry treatment, this combined with the Eagles smooth handling make it an excellent rope. Ropes of this diameter (between 9.5mm and 10mm) make great all-rounders. They last considerably longer than super skinny 9.1 and 9.2mm on-sighting ropes , but are not as heavy and unmanageable as fat 10.5mm dogging ropes. The Eagle is a great sport climbing or more durable alpine rope. The colours are changing so I have a single batch of these at a very low price, my price on these will remain at £105 only while my current stock lasts.
What Edelrid say:
A universal light weight rope for climbing in alpine, crag or indoor conditions. With Edelrid's new and highly efficient Advanced Shield treatment the Eagle has the perfect protection for wet or dirty conditions. For fast alpine ascents were snow or rain can be expected or a warm sunny day at the crag the Eagle fulfils the task with honours. Edelrid's TS handling coupled with the Advanced Shield helps provide the excellent handling and very robust sheath with an amazingly low weight of 62 g a metre.
