Soon after it arrived in the mail, I got right to trashing the Topaz and took it mixed climbing throughout Colorado including at Bear's Den in Rocky Mountain National Park, Vail and for an extended group top-roping sessions on ice and mixed terrain in Clear Creek Canyon. I also took it sport and trad climbing, treating it like a gym rope. Today, after months of use, the rope is holding up well and continues to handle as if it just came out of the box.
while the Topaz claims a diameter of 9.2mm, it climbs much more like a 9.5 mm rope in terms of its weight, feel and durability. Don’t be fooled into thinking this will be your new lightweight redpoint cord, but if you’re looking for a solid-performing all-around workhorse rope that withstood an impressive 8 UIAA falls, and especially if you want a bi-pattern rope with long-lasting dry treatment, you should seriously consider the Edelrid Topaz.
Out of the bag, the Topaz is a pleasure to handle. It’s perfectly supple, finding the happy middle ground between floppy and stiff. It holds knots well but seemed to be a bit slick in the belay device at first, perhaps due to the dry-treatment. After a few pitches of break-in, the Topaz lost some of the slickness and started to show its true colors as a workhorse up for anything.
