    The Edelweiss Discover 8mm x 30m Super Dry twin rope is a shorter length rope designed for mountain walking, glacier travel and use during emergencies.

    • Small diameter and dry finish keep the weight down, while its 30m length coils small for easy transport in a pack
    • Super Everdry™ treatment coats both sheath and core fibers to minimize water-absorption
    • Additional Perdur™ sheath fiber coating helps increase abrasion resistance up to 33%
    • Smooth, tightly braided sheath improves durability, reduces rope drag and allows easier handling
    • Edelweiss Discover 8mm x 30m Super Dry twin rope meets or exceeds UIAA tests for falls, impact force and elongation
    • Compact size and dynamic construction can be used singly for mountain and glacier travel as well as backcountry safety

    NOTE: Twin ropes are designed to be used in matching pairs (sizes, lengths and brands) and should be used parallel within a twin rope system. Using a mis-matched pair will cause undue wear on the ropes, exposing you to a higher risk of rope failure. They can be used singly in certain situations (like basic glacier climbs and traverses) where the risk of severe falls is absent

    Imported.

      Comments about EDELWEISS Discover 8mm x 30m Super Dry Twin Rope:

      This is a great smaller rope and a good value. Only nit pic is the listed weight of 42g/m appears inaccurate, as the rope I purchased is 47.5g/m.

          Comments about EDELWEISS Discover 8mm x 30m Super Dry Twin Rope:

          Bought this rope for glacial travel for 2 and 3 person teams. Took it up Mt. Rainier in late September and it worked great. Due to its lightweight and 30m length it easy to pack. Color is bright enough to see well even in the darkest of nights on the mountian. It takes knots well, bites tight, but also unties easily. Comparing this to another 8mm rope I notice the sheath isnt as 'smooth' as the other rope...but this in no way made any difference while climbing or tying in. Buy with confidence.
