Questions on Beal Dry Cobra Rope 8.6mm
-
From Marielle on 14/08/11
- Would this rope be okay for a beginner starting top-rope climbing?
- Hi Marielle, I would suggest going with a single rope (rather than a half rope like the cobra) for top rope climbing. There are 3 models I would suggest looking at, the Flyer http://www.bivouac.co.nz/gear/climbing/ropes/beal-standard-flyer-ii-rope-10-2mm.html, the Edlinger http://www.bivouac.co.nz/gear/climbing/ropes/beal-edlinger-ii-rope-10-2mm.html or the Top Gun http://www.bivouac.co.nz/gear/climbing/ropes/beal-standard-top-gun-rope-10-5mm.html. These 3 ropes are better designed for use top roping and will take a higher number of falls. Thanks
