The Swift Pro Dry is a dead-on strike in regards to the climbing rope golden trio – low weight, durability, and reliability. It is able to take on three shapes and perform as a twin rope, as a half rope, and a single rope.
At 8.9mm the rope is not too skinny or too thick, thus giving you the opportunity to use it for ice climbing, lightweight redpointing, or multi-pitch course alike. There is hardly any scenario this rope wouldn’t fit.
The dry treatment comes in handy more often than not, and this rope has got it too. Neither dirt, dust, nor water will be powerful enough to change your climbing plans. And, as if it was not already good enough, Edelrid equipped it with the Thermo Shield treatment. Are you sold now?
