    The REI Member Dividend

    The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

    Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

    Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

    The Sterling Evolution Velocity 9.8mm x 60m dry rope is your go-to rope for all your climbing adventures. From trad climbs to sport routes to steep ice, the Evolution Velocity is up to the task.

    • Sheath and core treatments protect against water and dirt, thereby increasing the durability of the rope
    • Just the right amount of stiffness keeps the rope from flopping around when you're trying to clip it; sheath withstands abrasion and slides smoothly without a lot of drag
    • 9.8mm diameter keeps the weight down to 62g per meter so you can carry the rope to alpine climbs
    • Kernmantle design combines a durable braided sheath with a shock-absorbent core for protection from fall forces
    • Sterling Evolution Velocity 9.8mm x 60m dry rope meets UIAA tests for falls, impact force and elongation

      Comments about Sterling Evolution Velocity 9.8mm x 60m Dry Rope:

      This is a great rope for any occasion. Although I've successfully avoided getting caught in the rain since buying this rope, its dry core and sheath has been greatly appreciated in the early part of the season with feet of snow lingering at the base of most of the climbs of done so far this year. It's light-weight, feeds beuatifully through ATCs, is long enough for 100ft+ climbs and distributes the force of falls quite nicely. I was a afraid that the light color would dirty easily, but after several months of climbing, it looks almost like it did when purchased.

          Comments about Sterling Evolution Velocity 9.8mm x 60m Dry Rope:

          I have the bi-color version of this rope. So far I have used this rope for about a month now and I really like it.

          Currently I have used it for rappelling, top rope set ups, and sport climbing.

          I really like the knot-ability of this rope. Also it feels very smooth and provides good control when belaying and rappelling with an ATC.
