ProView – Edelrid Canary Pro Dry 8.6mm
The versatility, durability, and weight of the Canary 8.6 is almost unmatched which allows it to excel as an alpine rope. With a triple certification, this rope is also highly versatile and can be used in many different ways. Since I tested this rope over the summer months I was only able to get miles of rock climbing out of it, but come winter and spring I will be pushing the Canary 8.6 into mixed, ice, and snow climbing. With my experience with the rope up to this point, I predict the Canary 8.6 will perform as a robust ice or mixed rope used in a doubles configuration as well as fantastic glacier travel rope thanks to its dynamic elongation and Pro Dry treatment. Anyone looking for a highly versatile rope with fantastic handling and durability need look no further, the Edelrid Canary Pro Dry 8.6 should be at the top of the list.
