Sterling Fusion Nano IX

Plenty of climbers swear by this rope and we are here to tell you why. Everyone loves 2-in-1 items, but when the numbers grow and the item becomes 3-in-1, one simply cannot miss out on that. That’s exactly what happened with this Fusion Nano IX rope.

It can be used as a single, half, or twin for a variety of activities like ice climbing, rock climbing, or even redpointing. When taking into account its skinny diameter that reaches 9mm, we can safely assume that this model will suit climbing experts the best.

It incorporates a DryXP treatment that is handy for keeping the water away from the rope while also having middle markers aiding to set up rappels. This being said, we found this model from Sterling to not be particularly durable as it starts showing the signs of wear almost too quickly.
