This is as light as it gets! Mammut has extended the range of their high end Challenge Line with the addition of the feather weight REVELATION - at only 55 grams per meter! Lighter weight and compact construction means less drag to hold you back whether pulling down at the sport crag or hustling up a route in the mountains. Get spoiled by Mammut's Teflon Coating Finish which enhances cut resistance, increases smooth handling and also contributes to reduced moisture absorption - in addition to Mammut's legendary Superdry treatment. A further benefit and one you will appreciate and depend on is the TrioSafe marking - applied 5 meters from each end and also at the mid point - to help avoid rappelling and lowering incidents and also remind you know when it's time to stop and belay.

Untitled ReviewFor alpine rock, that has a mix of harder and easier sections, it sure is nice to string a long section together and link pitches. On really hard sustained climbs, a 50 meter might be better, because you would have to carry so much more pro. I've discovered some areas, like the Pearly Gates in Leavenoworth, where you can't toprope any of the routes, or rappel with a 60. Sure is nice to have the extra length sometimes.
The rope is very well made and has some nice features like a 5 meter warning stitching on each end, and a sewn in center point. My other cragging rope has neither.
I would highly recommend this rope.
