Black diamond gym rope review.

Think everything from working projects to red pointing general cragging and even taking beginning climbers out top roping. The black diamond gym 30 is a great addition to the range and well thought out. With the reputation for making some of the most durable and trusted hard goods in the industry we were curious to see if black diamond ropes lived up to their reputation. Black diamond just recently started making ropes and we were excited to check them out in our updated review.

This is solely for my gym rope which keeps it clean and is very easy to use. I reckon if i was using a leading wall more often i would opt for the gym 35 which would easily be big enough for my kit and a 40m rope. We were happy with the handling and performance of the 9 9 and look forward to checking out. We chose to test the 9 9 mm rope as it was already a top seller on many outdoor retailers but they are making a full compliment of ropes from this one all the way down to 7 8 mm half ropes.

With that in mind this rope became the go to cord for day in day out use. Rating 3 out of 5 black diamond entered the rope market a few years back and now has small lineup of rock ice and gym ropes. Black diamond s 9 6mm rope was designed to do everything well and stand up to a beating while doing it. Sometimes i through my harness shoes and belay device in there too.
