Hi there personally I would use any of the companies listed at the side to buy a proper climbing rope . The rope your looking at is ok for srt and not drt

[Will Ayers]

That is definite not the right diameter. Way too thin.

min req is 10mm

Use the guys on here, any rope will do if it's the right rope. I always buy the best value and take the advice of the guys in the arb shop, I always get a rope with spliced eyes as I hate knots.

[Dan Earp]

Use the arb suppliers here. Also only had a quick look but that rope is 'rigging rope' as they say in the title.

 

Rigging and climbing rope are made differently.

 

End of the day, your using it to suspend yourself within a tree. Aka your life, buy proper rope and dont be cheap lol most ropes 11mm-13mm will be around £100.

I've climbed on static rope before and it's safe to take 10x your weight. A fall on it may be more serious as there is no stretch whatsoever in it.

For that price per metre i'm sure that you could find a proper climbing rope like Marlow gecko or Yale XTC12.

Also if your going to be using this at college and for assessments etc they want to see all paperwork and clear marking etc on the rope

[philip2011]

ok would it be safe to use as my strop then

tnx for the advice guys
