Beal presents one of the lightest double rope on the market.Its
extremely low impact force is excellent news for less than perfect
belay points in mixed and ice routes. A trump card that no Alpinist can
ignore. The lightness and free flow of a twin rope in addition to the
advantages of a Double rope. Every sheath on every Beal dynamic rope is
given a special treatment to increase its resistance to wear resulting
from abrasion; falls; dirt; the wet; and in so doing, significantly
increasing its active lifetime. Durable Resistant Yarn Cover chemically
coats each filament, which is then heat-treated, creating an actual
shell of polymerised molecules. This shell is in turn fixed in place by
chemical bonding with the molecules of the polyamide. . . resulting in
a durable resistant cover on the yarn.Durable Resistant Yarn Cover
constitutes a hydrophobic treatment of the sheath, which does not, on
its own, render the entire rope DRY. For that, the core must also be
given water repellency.
Beal call ropes with both treatments GOLDEN DRY.
