climbing rope
Vertical safety tether
A climbing rope is a specialized rope designed for rock climbing, mountaineering, and rappelling.
These ropes are engineered to absorb the shock of a fall through controlled stretching, unlike static ropes used for hauling.
Climbers distinguish between single ropes, half ropes, and twin ropes depending on the terrain and technique: Check your climbing rope for frays before every ascent.
