A static rope is not to be used for lead climbing. It is suitable for caving, abseiling and hauling bags only.
All Edelweiss static ropes are pre stretched. When you get your rope you must pre shrink it. To pre shrink a rope you simply wet it and allow it to dry before use.
The black version of the Cave Abseil rope is slightly more expensive due to a different rope fibre needed for dying.As with all Edelweiss Ropes it has a unique (cube) weave pattern which gives a great feel and anti kinking control.
