Description

PMI Verglas 8.1mm x 60m Dry Half/Twin Rope

UIAA certified as both a half and twin rope, the lightweight PMI Verglas lets you choose the technique that best suits the climb. Half and twin ropes are designed to be used as a matching pair; handling, elongation and strength differ from brand to brand and size to size. Small 8.1mm diameter saves weight, but, remember to be safe and pair it up. Kernmantle construction combines durable braided sheath and shock-absorbent core for protection from fall forces. UltraDry™ treatment penetrates sheath and core to retard water absorption and improve abrasion resistance. Meets UIAA tests for falls, impact force and elongation.

Go-to rope

These specific half/twin ropes are extremely versatile due to their certification to both UIAA ratings. These have been my go-to ropes for alpine rock and ice for the last three years and they're holding up well. Will buy these again when they wear out.

Awesome half/twin line!

Certainly NOT scary and frail as the name implies, these are possibly the best half lines on the market. I am in the process of switching to the Verglas from a more popular half line for use on ice and trad. The Verglas handles remarkably well and is quite durable. The dry coating works great. This rope exhibits just the quality that I would expect from PMI. It is also rated as a twin AND half line. Overall, this is a fine rope and I am surprised I don't see these everywhere.
