10.2mm Floating Canyoning Rope
Designed specifically for canyoning and swiftwater applications, this 10.2mm floating rope combines excellent handling, low stretch performance, and outstanding durability. The unique PA/PPV construction provides buoyancy while maintaining the strength and abrasion resistance required for demanding rescue and canyon environments.
The rope's robust sheath construction offers enhanced resistance to wear, while its low elongation characteristics provide greater efficiency during rappels, hauling, and rescue operations. Engineered to minimise shrinkage when exposed to water, it retains its performance characteristics over extended periods of use in wet environments.
Ideal for canyoning guides, rescue teams, swiftwater technicians, and outdoor professionals who require a reliable floating rope with excellent static performance.
