Rock climbing is the favorite sport for young people and enthusiasts. The intense and exciting process and the joy after the summit can make people want to stop. In the process of climbing, the safety issue is the first. So, what constitutes a climbing rope? What are the skills in use?

The climbing rope consists of a rope core and a rope skin. The rope core is composed of nylon fiber and is the main force-bearing part; the rope skin is used to protect the rope core. According to the use, it is divided into two categories: power rope and static rope. The static rope has a ductility of approximately 0. It cannot be absorbed by the telescopic force. It is generally used as a route rope. It is often used for caving, upstream, etc. It is basically not used for climbing, especially for the lower protection rope. The static rope is mostly white, even if it is colored, it is all monochrome; the power rope can telescopically absorb the impact generated by the falling off, especially for the protection of the underneath. In the project with the possibility of power falling, the power rope must be used. Such as rock climbing, mountain climbing, bungee jumping, etc., the power rope is mostly flower rope.

The rope is life in rock climbing. Take care of your rope and it will reward you well. Although a bit alarmist, this is true. Climbing the mountains and cliffs of nature is the favorite activity of all rock climbers, but the unknown will threaten our safety. How to maintain our ropes? When not in use, the rope should be placed in a dry and cool place, avoiding sun exposure, which will change the structure of the rope core, accelerate aging, and bring danger! If the rope becomes dirty for various reasons and needs to be cleaned, remember to use clean water. Do not use detergent.

All fiber products have their own lifespan. The rope is no exception. Under normal use, the life of the rope is 3-5 years. When the rope is found to be thin or hard, the structure of the rope has changed and should be stopped.
