Edelrid Swift Protect Pro Dry Rope
All in all, the Edelrid Swift Protect Pro dry rope seems like a great step forward for rope design. But, how does it perform? When you first use it you are likely to think the rope is fairly stiff. However, it soon softens up and works well with any belay devices we have used it with. The tight weave also inspires confidence that it will be durable and wear resistant. The other thing to note is that the sheath is quite rough in the hand. This actually makes gripping the rope very easy. This is a great benefit when using the rope in an instructing capacity.
