Do you often go out on cliff runs? Do you fall and work hard on your projects? This rope will meet all your needs.
Its diameter (9.5 mm) and the special weave of the sheath guarantee excellent fluidity, lightness and flexibility over time. This makes it pleasant to climb and belay.

Do you often go out on cliff runs? Do you fall and work hard on your projects? This rope will meet all your needs.
They are measured and validated in the laboratory by a certification body in accordance with standard EN 892: Number of falls: 6 Impact force: 8.4 KN Sheath percentage: 35.4% Dynamic elongation: 30.9% Static elongation: 5% Sheath slippage: 1 mm To define the number of falls, the standard’s protocol is much stricter than reality. The fall factor used is very high: 1.77. Under normal conditions, the fall factor is much lower.
The weight is 58 g/m. It’s an excellent compromise between lightness and durability. The weight is measured according to the EN 892 standard. For a single rope, the rope must be exposed to 10 kg of tension for 1 minute in very precise temperature and moisture conditions. This gives you the real weight of the rope, which is often superior to the weight given by the standard. But the standard allows us to compare ropes objectively.
Our designers increased the strength of the sheath by making it denser (48 strands) and knitting it with a smoother structure to reduce friction. The core and sheath are drawn together using a plasma process. This binds them more effectively and ensures that the rope remains supple over time. Warning: the suppleness can make this rope difficult to brake for beginner belayers. We also recommend regularly checking the tightness of the knot.
To improve your safety, the Vertika rope features a black mark which indicates the middle of the rope. We recommend always checking the length of the route before climbing as well as tying a knot at the end of the rope.
As they get older, all climbing ropes get shorter. This generally ranges from 2 to 5%, but can go up to 10% depending on humidity, heat, falls, washing, etc. To reduce this effect, we provide an extra length margin in production, but we recommend that you measure your rope regularly and verify the location of the marking in the middle of the rope.
All of our ropes are designed and tested at our headquarters in Chamonix, in the Mont Blanc valley. They are made in the North of France, in our advanced partner factory Cousin in textile braiding for the last 170 years.
It’s important to properly care for your rope to reduce wear. Dirt ages rope. We recommend: 1- Use a rope bag at the foot of the routes. 2- If the rope is dirty, wash it with clean, lukewarm water. Should stains persist and you want to wash it with soap, it is important to use a pH-neutral soap (such as Marseille/household soap) and then rinse thoroughly with clean water. 3- Air dry the rope out of the sun and away from all sources of heat.
Ropes should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from light, humidity, and corrosive agents. Never leave ropes inside a car during summer, for example.
It is important to check your rope regularly. To do so, run the rope through your hands and inspect it metre by metre along its entire length. This will allow you to spot any nicks, cuts, abrasion or weak points. If you notice any anomalies or irregularities, if the core is visible in certain places, if the rope is deformed or has exceeded its fall rating, it must no longer be used.
CE-certified rope according to the standard EN 892:2012+A3: 2023 UIAA 101 certified rope
