Dynamic rock climbing rope is an essential piece of gear for any climber. This type of climbing rope is specifically designed to stretch and absorb the force of a fall. Dynamic rope is also typically thinner and lighter than static rope, making it easier to carry and handle. When choosing a dynamic climbing rope, it is important to consider the rope's diameter and length.

Choosing the Right Dynamic Climbing Rope for You

Dynamic rope is the preferred choice for most climbers, especially those who are just starting out. This type of rope comes in multiple sizes and lengths and is ideal for rock climbing, lead climbing, and mountaineering and can also be used for tree climbing.

Diameter 

A rope’s diameter affects the rope’s strength and weight. Choosing the right size rope for the type of climbing you’ll do is essential. At Armbury, we offer dynamic rock climbing rope in various diameters to suit your excursion, including:

• 8.3mm Dynamic Rope–ideal for alpine climbing and multi-pitch climbs
• 9.4mm Dynamic Rope–ideal for cragging and top-roping
• 9.8 and 10.2mm Dynamic Rope–ideal for top-roping and indoor climbing
• 10.5 and 11mm Dynamic Rope–ideal for indoor climbing or climbing in extreme outdoor conditions

Length 

A 60m dynamic rock climbing rope is the standard and will typically meet your needs, regardless of the adventure. However, there may be times you need a shorter or longer rope, which is why all of our dynamic rope comes in multiple lengths depending on the diameter you choose, including:

• 50m
• 60m
• 70m
• 200m 

If you’re unsure of the best length for your climbing excursion, we recommend starting with a 60m rope.
