Sterling Ropes Velocity 9.8mm x 70M XEROS Climbing Rope

Sterling's flagship rope and all-rounder for use in virtually any condition, the Velocity finds a near-perfect balance of characteristics for a wide variety of climbing styles and conditions. With a generous sheath proportion leading to greater durability, this rope is a great choice for working hard routes season after season. And with a 70 meter cord, you'll be able to tackle most modern routes on the planet.

Let's talk about that XEROS dry treatment real quick. XEROS does not apply a simply dry coating to the rope, or a separate liquid bath treatment. XEROS is a new step in the manufacturing process of individual nylon fibers, before they’re even twisted into yarn, that makes each fiber water resistant. When making dry rope using these fibers, the result is a product that blows traditional dry rope out of the water. This creates a dry rope that is more effective, more wear resistant, better for the environment, with less sheath slippage, all at a lower cost.
