Petzl Rumba 8 mm is a versatile half rope, also certified as a twin rope, designed for multi-pitch rock, alpine routes and ice or mixed climbing. Its low weight per metre, compact pack size and durable sheath make it a great partner on long approaches and big days in the mountains, while the grippy surface runs smoothly through belay devices and gives you precise control when you’re committing to crux moves high above your last piece.
The DURATEC DRY treatment provides excellent water, dirt and abrasion resistance so the rope stays supple and easy to handle even in cold and wet conditions. Features like the MIDDLE MARK, ULTRASONIC FINISH at the rope ends, EVERFLEX thermal treatment and CLIMBREADY coil all work together to increase durability and user-friendliness. The result is a lightweight yet tough half rope that supports a wide range of alpine objectives and quietly adds a safety margin while you focus on climbing.
