Has the perfect diameter, weight, and strength for canyoneering. Excited to use this rope and see how well it does over the years, especially in wet conditions.

One of my go-to ropes for canyoning. Thick enough for easy bare-handed rappelling and good control yet light weight and packs small considering it is 9mm. I think it gets a little bouncy for my taste when wet so I use it primarily in dry canyons but it has handled fine in wet canyons as well. Great abrasion resistance with its Technora sheath! I currently own three of these in different lengths

The Sterling Rope C-IV 9mm Rope is a fantastic rope for canyoneering. It's supple yet rugged and durable, lightweight, and stacks in a bag easily. Best used for dry canyons but can also be used in water.

Great canyoneering rope. Resistant to abrasion, sheds water well, packs down nice and isn't to heavy. I use this rope for commercial guiding and it holds up really well.

This stuff is SO light (comparable to many of the 8mm!). Since none of the components absorb water, it stays light (my 200' of this feels lighter than my 9.5mm 60' of nylon-core after a good soaking). If I bring beginners to canyons, this is what I want them on: easy to hold (does rap fast for a 9mm), and the technora sheath makes a big difference in durability. Sandstone canyons, no edge pro (traveling light here...) 200' rappel, eight people, and some really bad edge transitions, with only a bit of light fuzzing (I was concerned the entire sheath would be gone by the fourth person). Also great for use in harsh city environments (90 degree concrete ledges are the ultimate test). Tech is extremely hard to cut, pretty hard to abrade, and impossible to burn (had someone throw two feet of this into a fire, and we watched the core melt out, but the sheath was completely fine. Not saying it's a good idea, but at the strength of Technora, I'd rap that). If you're a canyoneer, caver, or urbexer, looking for something light and durable, this is my favorite.
